I was getting worried that we weren't hearing anything more in your I-Got-the-Job thread. Now I know why.

Of course you're concerned & down. I gather you've not had a lot of complete physicals so this sort of news is not something you've dealt with before. If you'd had regular physicals over the years, you'd have had results along these lines before at some point most likely.

I've had a couple lumps, both were cysts. One popped out with some pressure, the other was biopsied and was deemed safe to ignore. My mom had a tumor that was biopsied as cancerous but after removal proved to be benign. Probably the best thing for you to focus on is 1) you've caught it early and 2) you've got good health care and insurance. Whatever it is, it'll be dealt with properly and adequately and with time you'll be fine.

As for the menopause, "really old," and not forgetting "all downhill from here" talk--thought I'd forget that, huh? --it might actually get better. Once the hormones started to fall, my body chemistry leveled out. Some meds worked better.

Hang in. When do you expect to start getting some answers?
