I got my MRI results today. There were several areas that showed up on the MRI that didn't show on prior imaging. So they requested that I have ultrasounds on those areas when I have my post-op appointment/mammogram tomorrow. I was assuming I'd have to have ultrasound because not everything shows up on mammogram or if it does they can't always tell what it is and ultrasound helps. If it doesn't show on the imaging tomorrow they'll do a biopsy with MRI assist.


They didn't mention the lump I can feel which concerns me. Of the things they found 2 were larger. They like things to be under 1 cm and one was just over that and one was 1.2 cm or something close to that.

So we'll see what tomorrow brings.

I did go to the zoo. It was a lovely sunny warm day; I was actually too warm in my hoodie. The first hour or so I didn't see many animals. Then I hiked up this mile long hill and found some animals (plus the tram that brings you up the huge hill for no cost. I got a ride down). On the way down I found the animals so I finally saw the things you expect to see at a zoo (for a while I was worried a squirrel gnawing on a pumpkin was going to be all I saw). But I got to see lots of animals after that. I even heard a lion roaring a bunch of times, something I've never experienced.


Tonight I'm tired and hope to get to sleep early. I got a late check-out for noon and then get the shuttle to the hospital one last time for my mammogram, ultrasounds and post-op. Medically this will be a very expensive week. I guess that's what it is going to take to get through this.
