Singing the mammary blues

Today is the day I finally get to see a "breast health specialist".

As some of you know, I've been struggling with a breast health issue for some time now. Two mammograms and one breast biopsy have ruled out breast cancer; but my breast problem remains unresolved and undiagnosed.

The concern at this point is two fold. First, my "condition" is worsening; and second there may some undiagnosed disease process at work.

So, today is my lucky day! I get to whip out the ole mammaries one more time for yet one more examination.

I cannot help but wonder if I weren't under insured, older, overweight and generally less "valuable" to society, if my medical care might have been better?

Yes, well I have no time today to ponder such things. I must shower and powder and prepare for my appointment!

If you are inclined to pray for me.....for wisdom, for patience, for whatever, I would be deeply appreciative!
