Mammogram and sonogram
Apr. 7th, 2023 10:19 pmSo I woke up at 10 but didn't actually get out of bed till around 11. Then I breakfasted, and showered and washed my hair, and dressed for my mammogram appointment. I still had plenty of time so I puttered around and got the mail, where there was some paperwork I have to do about Middle Brother, and finally Skyped the FWiB for a few minutes before I called an Uber and went over.
Turns out my doctor had messed up and scheduled me for the wrong type of mammogram (screening rather than diagnostic) so they had to call her up and get it straightened out. Then after that everything went smoothly. I got my boobs squished, which I have always found to be not as painful as a lot of women say, and I got my breast sonogram, which I actually dislike more than I do the mammogram.
So I won't know the results for about a week, but I hope they are OK.
Then I went out, and went to the diner across the street. RK and I ate there once, when he drove me to something, I think an MRI, at the same location. The place was totally empty except for me, but the food was OK. I got a tuna melt and iced tea. I called Oldest Brother for the second time, and texted the Kid to let them know I was done.
Then I went to the Carvel there and got a strawberry cone with chocolate sprinkles.
I decided to take the bus home, rather than an Uber, in order to save money. It's right by where I used to get my therapy until they went virtual, and easy to get to and from by bus, though it takes two.
Came home and Skyped the FWiB again, this time for a longer time. Just as we were saying goodbye, I got a text from![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mashfanficchick that she wanted me to call, so I did. We had a nice conversation.
I had a little something to eat, not a full meal since I had a large lunch, but a little. Then I went and lay down in the bedroom and puttered on my phone till it was time to call Oldest Brother again. And I called the Kid too.
Came out when it was pet feeding time and fed the pets. And now I'm here.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
