I had an appt. my PA. Lab work had been done 2 days earlier and was back - perfectly normal. I knew I had a couple of lumps under my arm. She sent me to the Radiologist that afternoon for a mammagram. After the mammagram they did a sonogram and then the Radiologist came in and said he needed to do a biopsy then.

Aug. 7, 2009
Radiologist called shortly after 8 am and said that the results were back on one of the biopsies and it was positive for cancer - he expected the other one to be positive also. That afternoon the surgeon's office called and said I had a Monday appt.
