So I got referred and the bigger, better hospital found some more concerning things on my pathology slides from one of my 2 biopsies. So I don't know.
But I do know that as it gets closer I get more anxious. Last night I slept a little bit and then had to take an extra .5 mg of klonopin twice to get to sleep about 5. I hate using it but my pdoc made it clear that right now I need to and I'm not going to lose the tiny progress I'd made in getting off.
I just really want this over. I have 3 appointments Tuesday. First they look at the images from hospital #1. Then I have mammogram#5 since December (I'm unclear if they'll still do this if the images they have are sufficient). And then I meet with the surgeon.
I'll be so glad to be done with this. I've had so many mammograms and several needles into my breast, including one that had a port on it that let a device be placed that my breast so sore. I don't mind mammograms normally but I think it if I have to have one Tuesday it will be uncomfortable. I can't wear an underwire bra comfortably right now I squeezing my breast sounds like a bad idea.
3 more days.....

Thank you for checking in and updating us. I agree with your psychiatrist regarding the Klonopin.
