Boobs and the lumps in them
photo

So I had a little scare this week.




All week I kept on feeling like I had a gas bubble under my ribs on my right side.  Then on Saturday after I awoke from being asleep on the couch (I raged early for the Penguin Plunge where I jumped into Lake Champlain) I noticed the gas bubble pain again so I felt where it was and it was a lump....in my boob!  Yikes!!




Well Vermont is a great state because since I am a new business owner which means that I don't have much money they will offer me free health insurance.  They have Ladies First which will cover all lady screenings and lady dramas.  You can check out their website at www.healthvermont.gov/prevent/ladies_first/outreach.aspx




So I have this lump and my whole right boob hurts....so I venture off to The Fletcher Allen Breast Care Center.  If you go there....they have been Healthy Hippied so look for the magazine in the waiting area.  I got a mammogram which is really fun....it makes your boobs look funny:)  I want a picture of my boob all schwished just for fun.  Then I had an ultra sound.  They said that they think that I have a tumor made of breast tissue and that it should be no big deal.  If it continues to hurt and or gets bigger I have to go back.  So everyone think of my boobies and send them some love and maybe when I see you, I will flash them for you unless I'm related to you!!!

That's scary, I can't believe how nonchalant you are talking about it. I think I would panic. I hope everything is ok. I will send healthy boob vibes for you :)
