It sounds to me, Milly, as if he was pretty sure it was scar tissue really, but thought he'd better err on the safe side by checking you again, which is probably a reasonable compromise. You can always go back and tell him if you'd really rather get rid of it. The trouble with medicine is that things are never quite as cut and dried or simple as patients (or doctors) would like them to be.

Thanks Mary. I'm sure that will be the case. I'm not going to worry about it anyway - I've got too many other things to take care of!  Would you believe that I've been through all this because I went initially to the Well Woman Clinic for a checkup? They found a lump and there was a big hoo-haa about what it might be - I had a biopsy, a week's terror, surgery and then was told it was absolutely nothing at all to worry about, after all that. Then he found this other one....and you know the rest. Makes you wonder whether going for checkups is the right idea! If I hadn't gone in the first place, none of this would have happened, including the unnecessary surgery.  |

Oh but Milly, lives are saved by routine check-ups. I'm so glad to hear that yours appears to be nothing to worry about.  |

Yes I do realise that if it had been something to worry about, then it would have been worth doing. I think it's a shame though after all the tests, mammograms, biopsies etc., that they still can't gauge the seriousness and have to open you up before they realise, after the event, that they didn't have to. I'm all for mammograms and biopsies. If there's a problem after those, then obviously surgery is the answer. But then not to be sure and to go through all that, seemingly for nothing, seems ludicrous to me. As far as mine appears to be nothing to worry about - he was undecided even then, whether to do a biopsy, whip the thing out or leave it. I've got to wait four months now before we go through the same farce again. I'm not even going to think about it again, till June. |

I've only got a minor grumble to report.
I have another cold. I've been sneezing all day and I feel rather bunged up now.
Thankfully I have an easy weekend ahead of myself but it would have been nice to be completely compost mensa for some decent composition time.
Milly - glad to hear that everything is clear. My mum's recently had a number of health scares, all of which have turned out to be completely benign, but which terrified her until she finally got them checked out.

Meanwhile,Trivially speaking,Peripetatetic coughers out in force on Friday in Norf Lunnun, overcast and blustery leading, with the trapse, to general feeling of yukhh.

Ok, so having completed my first recording in 6 years, I went hunting through my music, some of which is prints of pdfs and spirally bound. And I caught my 3rd finger in the spiral bound bit and cut it on the pad  No more recordings until it's healed up properly  |

OK, so the pork steak comes out of the griddle pan, I deglaze it with white wine, throw in some parsley, pour it on top of the pork, put some water in the pan and then put it down on one of the few available surfaces (haven't worked out if the surfaces are heat-proof in this flat yet). I have a tendency to not correctly see if something is laid flat or not and guess what? The griddle pan slides off the surface onto the floor splashing dirty water everywhere...
AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!
So I scrabble around trying to mop it all up while my dinner gets cold.
Why bother?
Kitchen floor needs a clean anyway.
But I'm hot and tired and I don't know blah.
Seems all rather trivial compared with everyone else's woes but at that moment when it all goes wrong...

Oh I see. I think I may have a temperature, hence the bad mood, the poor judgement of suitable surfaces and the wish to close one's eyes and sleep.
