There has been a questionable finding and they need to retest one side. I’ll have it done on Wednesday. I’ve decided that worry serves no useful purpose and I can cope with whatever turns up. The miracle is that I was able to do the testing at an advanced level at this time and I now have the mental capacity to handle things...whatever they may be. Hallelujah!
Yes!
I have had years when I have missed, too. The "call backs" can be "unnerving!"

One of my sisters is called back every single time. She has resorted to scheduling her ultrasound on the same day as her mammogram. She seems to circumvent a lot of anticipatory anxiety this way.

Jennifer, I'll be thinking of you, hun!
Hugs, Love and Prayers
