I have had to go and have some tests done with some pain I have been having in my lower right abdomen. The only thing they have done so far is a ultrasound internally and externally. Those came back normal. The next thing is some blood work and on Wed. of next week I will have a biopsy done. I hope they find the cause of the pain, but hope it is not something bad. I break-out if I take advil, motrin, asperin, or aleve and it is hard to deal with this pain when I can't take nothing for it. At times it is so bad I double over and can't stand up straight. The doctor said it sounded like my right fallopian tube. It could be a cyst. She is not sure, so that is why the tests will be done. I will let you all know how it goes and what the results are.
Oh, and for us girls. I had to go get my first mammogram done and you hear all kinds of things before you go, like they squeeze the crap out of your breasts and it puts alot of pressure on them and so forth. Well now since I've had it done, I can tell those of you who have not had it done yet that it is not bad at all. I felt a little pressure once but that was it. It is no big deal at all. I guess you know your getting old when you have to have a mammogram done since your first one is done around age 40. They said that if breast cancer runs in your family that you will have to get it done earlier like age 35. I guess it is part of being a woman. We better get use to it, because we have to do it every year! I ask you, WHY us women.
I will keep you updated to let you know what the doctor said.
