As you follow my blog you have learned that I have had issues with my breast. Mainly them hurting. A few weeks ago, I went in and finally done the dreaded pap smear. Thinking I was going in for just that. I heard the famous words, please undress everything. Excuse you!!! There is only one person I enjoy undressing in front of and it isn't a female doctor. My normal exam turned into a life threatening thought. I was terrified for the next week. When she done the breast exam she felt a knot in my breast. YES, I have felt them before and got them checked. This time though it was more terrifying the thought of someone who knew what they were doing actually found the knot. Waited impatiently for a week to have a mammogram done. I was very relieved to learn that again it was just tissue knots. This time though the radiologist went into detail as to what was going on. I am a heavy chested woman have been since I was about 12. But he said that I'm experiencing what they call tissue ripping and causing dense knots My breast are starting to sag (joys of having kids), but since sagging normally occurs in older woman my body is reacting and the tissue dense which is up causing the knots. Painful knots!!
However, to woman, young woman, or anyone of the female body! Please take mammograms and pap smears seriously. Although they are the most uncomfortable test to go through it can be life saving!
