So.
Goes to Northampton General earlier today into Integrated Surgery. Found a lump in my breast three months ago, to which I've had scans and ultrasounds for.
I'm quite a modest person, and nothing really makes me shy. Taking off my top for a doctor doesn't make me shy in the latest to which he said most women get very embarrassed. I just said to him that he's there to do a job and why should that make me feel embarrassed?
So, after having another scan, ultrasound and mammogram. They shocked me into having a biopsy. I almost freaked out. Needles terrify me. Local anaesthetic, and this humongous looking box thing. I'm still sore now, obviously and will be for the next few days.
But I tell you what. Those guys are the most professional guys in the world. They are very caring and very very dedicated to their patients. The nurses are absolutely without a doubt the kindest people you will ever care to meet.
Anyhow, I will be told my results in two weeks. And do you know what? Now that I know if it is anything less desirable (so to speak) I will be in the care of perhaps the greatest team of people in the world. I have absolutely no worries whatsoever, there are so many options these days and the treatments are 100% modern. I've just witnessed my boyfriends grandmother (at the age of 76) beat bowel cancer. If she can do it, so can I.
I will never stop smiling, and I never want the people closest to me to stop either.
Besides - if it is cancer - I have always wanted to cut off all my hair, just never had the guts...
Cheaper than going to the hairdressers!!!

Anyway, best of luck, Steph. Hopefully it isn't anything bad, and if it is, you've got the right attitude. Bitch slapping is clearly a talent of your's, so you know what to do if it's "less desirable."
