I'm not too worried, but every once in a while I wonder what would happen if it is cancer. I also laugh at how ironic this is... other than being overweight my entire adult life, I have been relatively healthy. Now that I am on the road to a healthier me, I have to worry if I have cancer or not. 
I know I am thinking too much, but if it is cancer... will I have to have an unfill? How would my treatments affect my band? Has anyone else had to deal with this? Any advice other than to just relax and not focus on the negatives.
Thanks for just letting me vent somewhere. Other than my husband, I have not told a single person. |

It was a requirement for me to get a mamo before the doc would band me - I was banded on 7/17 and on 8/3 had to go in for the exact same thing

I had the same thoughts too - omg here i might have cancer and I just when thru all the trouble of getting banded -
BUT IT CAME BACK CLEAR - my sister had the same thing in the same breast (right) and it came back clear too - I go back to have my right brest ck'd on 3/11
Yep just don't try and dwell on it - the way I thought about it was - "if it is cancer they found it very early (pepper flakes as the way it was discribed to me) and I would just deal with whatever the out come was. Worrying isn't going to change a thing - I told my Sister - but not my kids until after it came back clear.
Will keep you in my prayers... You will be fine - I understand your fears,..
Blessings,....
