Breast Center

I went to the Breastcancer Center today. My Mom went with me because M. went to pick-up his Mom from the airport.
Dr. G. will be my Doctor for now. She seems quite nice and thorough. She said that they still need one letter from the pathologist before they can give me definite recommendation for treatment, but that Chemo, surgery, and radiation are most certainly in my future-at least from their stand point.
Also, she explained that if I will get chemo, this will cause me to be in meno pause and can damage the ovaries permanently-so I need to meet with the Children-Wish-Clinic which at least is in the same building.
After meeting with her my Mom went to work and I had a bit time before going to the next hospital to get an MRI done. I have had one MRI before and it was no problem, uncomfortable but doable. Not this time. No no no! About 10 minutes into the deal I could not handle it anymore and rang the bell and told the ladies to get me out of there...so we will have to do it again sometime! Great!
