RESULTS

I had my second date with this guy today!



He likes to turn every which a way. But I got GREAT results.

NO CANCER!

When I first went in and the tech showed me the places that were in question on the 1st mammogram pictures. At that point I was slightly worried but I didn't let it really get to me. After a few more mammogram photos I had to go back to my dressing room to wait while the doctor looked at those pictures. Then another girl came to take me to the ultrasound room. OK now you think this would be a piece of  cake after the mammo BUT NO! IT HURT ALOT!

Anyway she did her thing FOREVER! Then the doctor came in  and apparently he knew I was worried so the first thing he said was "NO BAD NEWS TODAY"
WHEW
He explained what he was looking for. I have lots of spots that are just cysts which he said were benign. Since this was my first experience he wants me to come back in 6 months. He said they were worry warts so if he really thought it was something he would have been scheduling me for needle biopsy, MRI or surgery but he said if I were his wife or daughter he would be telling him the same thing.

Praise God for answered prayers!

OLD

Eyes Over 40: Baby Boomers,Presbyopia & Vision Changes

If you're over 40, you've probably noticed your eyes have changed. Most notably, presbyopia — the normal, age-related loss of near focusing ability — usually becomes a problem in our 40s, requiring new vision correction solutions. Learn about measures you can take to keep seeing clearly for years to come.

So I went to the eye doctor today for my yearly appointment and boy did he have great news for me! The above is basically what my problem is!

I NEED BIFOCALS!

I am not ready for this!

I have had a kink in my neck for 3 days.

I have severe fatigue and have diagnosed myself as being allergic to gluten.But have done absolutely nothing about!

I have some major breakouts on my face in the past 2 weeks

I had a crown fall off and I have to have a root canal next week.

And the skinny little 12 year old Optometrist hands me this paper to read for those over 40 and I fail the stinkin test! I wanted to ask him if he knew it was Friday and I did not need to hear this when I have had a bad week and was so looking forward to a relaxing weekend. But I didn't, I just smiled and told him the truth. I can't see the stupid letters and why do the letters all look like they are stretching and have spikes coming out of them?

I left there with 1 stronger daily contact in my right eye and a 2 week contact in my left eye that really doesn't have much of a prescription at all, but I have to remember to save it each day and not throw it away. I am actually going to try to wear only 1 contact to see if it works because Mr. 12 year old says it will balance out the vision since 1 eye is near sited and 1 is far sited and if my brain will accept it after a few days and adjust to the difference.

And the best part is I have $300 less moola in my pocket. That is for the cheapo glasses too!

Then tonight I had the pleasure of taking Coco to her softball league end of year pool party in 1000 degree heat! Lucky me, just kidding I did enjoy sitting there for 2 hours visiting with the other mama's that refused to put on a swimsuit for public consumption!!! We girls gotta stick together.

I have taken my muscle relaxant for the crick in my neck, Zyrtec for my constant allergies and some pain pill that I got just in case my tooth starts to hurt before the root canal. I took the pain killer just in case that tooth starts to hurt while I am sleeping (he he he he)! Hoping it knocks me out and I have a good long restful sleep.

I have gone on enough for one day!
Blessings,
Pam

EXCITEMENT

I have comments! I have comments! I am so excited about people reading my blog. Thank you all for stopping by....

We had softball practice tonight. This is the first one I have made it to and it was fun. I have a problem though. I get really excited and it shows. I try to sit still and be supportive but I can't help but jump up and clap and holler out encouragement. I don't get mad or anything like that, just happy and do a happy dance. Also Colby gets tired of me taking photos. Yes I'm the Mom out in the middle trying to get a good shot. She doesn't believe me now but she will want these when she is old.

I have to tell you a story about my sister and her granddaughter. Sunday Tammy Lou called me really frustrated that Kaylee wasn't obeying her. Didn't matter what Tammy did it didn't phase her. Kaylee just turned 4 and she already has quite the attitude. So I tell Tammy to put a couple of drops of vinegar on her tongue when she back talks her. I did this with Colby when she used some words that weren't appropiate and I only had to do it twice. Well Tammy calls me yesterday to tell me the vinegar didn't work. Kaylee liked it and told her "Nan I will drink that, Nan I like that". I couldn't help but laugh. She is a big handfull and it is just starting.

I am going to the eye doctor tomorrow. Please pray that I don't have to have bifocals(sp?) see I'm not even old enough to know how to spell it. 2 years ago the doctor told me I had at least 10 years before I would need them but I notice myself looking down at really small things like threading a needle or trying to read a VERY small MP3 player. So we'll see maybe I will just need new glasses. I really would like to try contacts but I am afraid that it will be irritating to my eyes. Maybe I will go out on a limb and try some. I will let you know how it goes tomorrow.

I am going to go finish my latest Karen Kingsbury novel, only 2 chapters left.

Talk to you soon.
