Thanks to both of you for the reply, it makes me feel a lot better to know this is a common thing, and also in case I get the sonogram done, and the person doing it happens to mention that it is solid, now I won't faint! I thought that the solid ones were always cancer. I am not sure if I am replying right on here, I am used to the old site right now, which I like a lot better!! I guess I'll get used to this one, I just like the way you could respond easily to anyone there and it seemed easier to see all the messages. Anyway, I do hope I respond right here, and thanks again for the advice, I'll let you know how the tests come out on Wednesday. It's so good to write on here, you feel like you're getting support, which can be hard to find, especially when you live far from family. My husband and I have 3 kids, and live about 2,000 miles from any family. It's always hard when I worry about a health issue like this, cause my youngest one is 6 years old, and I always worry that she will be left alone, I know I shouldn't think like that. It's important to have a positive attitude, I know some people around my area who have had cancer, and just had a great attitude, like they were going to beat it, and they did. I was watching Olivia Newton-John on tv the other day, and she had breast cancer, and was saying that she just told herself that she was going to get better, and she did. These days, I guess the chances are good if you catch it early. Well, thanks again, and I just can't wait until Wednesday is over with!! This is a learning experience, though, I realize that it's a lot easier to prevent something than to cure it, and now I'm learning alot about what to eat, and how I should be drinking green tea every day. They say that Japanese women drink green tea every day, and they have the lowest rates of breast cancer in the world, and I guess studies they have done have linked it to that. You can buy it decaf, I think the benefits are the same. Thanks again! Val
