So, I'm kinda pissed today. First, no one read my ultrasound yesterday until after 4. Then the nurse called me to tell me that the doctor had left but "it was fine". I was like, "Okay.... then why does my tit hurt?" But I said nothing except "Thanks!" because the nurse said the breast specialist doctor wold be calling me today.
Then, because I asked the doc good get a copy of the results too, he sent me off an email saying "Your test was good. There are two mildly enlarged lymph nodes in the tail (near the armpit) of the breast. I'm sure that Dr breast specialist can comment further." Which doesn't particularly sound "fne" or "good" to me, it sounds like my "mildly enlarged"nodes just might have something to do why my nipple is on fire and there is a bump in my arm pit, but hey, I'm not a doctor!
Then the breast specialist called me today and says everything is fine. And I ask "Fine?" She says YES the ultrasound was normal and I ask her is there any inflammation and she tells me it is all in the normal range. So the bottom line is that inflammation that the breast specialist and good doc, my internist, can both feel with their fingers is "normal" even though I have a big lump in my arm pit and again I have the sensation of acid eating away at my nipple every time anything touches it.
I ask the breast specialist what I should next and she says she supposes that Advil is a good idea, and I'm like "Fuck you lady! I'm not taking Advil for all of eternity! Are you crazy or just an idiot?!!?!" in my head, and what I say out loud is, "Okay, thanks!" and I hang up with her and make a mental note to see all my alternative medicine practitioners and maybe even call the psychic in on this one. Western medicine has failed my searing pain nipple. You know I have to name it now, Hmmmm.. should I name it after grandma? Estelle. "Hello, I am Estelle, the scorching nipple." Gasp! I think it works!
Speaking of grandma, she has figured out another way to mess with the tv. I am so not kidding you people! Just keep reading! The other night I was fast deep asleep and in my dream this animated computer sound starts to interrupt. It's going beep beep boo beep beep boo, like that and it kept on and on until in my dream I realized that there was something wrong and it was this noise and I forced myself back to consciousness and just as I woke up it stopped. But not before I realized it was coming from the corner of the room where the tv is, but even I didn't think it was grandma right away, instead I figured that Josh, who had been playing in my room earlier had left an electronic toy in the corner, but when I woke up I looked over there and there was nothing but tv.
Don't worry Tony is right here next to me all night long.
Grandma is feisty! Maybe she was trying to call you, like on the phone or something.
