I should mention that I might end up in a medical journal of some sort, at least I hope so. I seem to be somewhat famous at the Civic hospital breast health centre --the staff all know who I am. Feels odd but not bad, I must say. All this because of the hoops I've had to jump through lately (the nurse's words, not mine) and because the cancer specialists learned something new about breast cancer showing up on MRI images with my case. That is definitely worth the week of limbo I went through. If this stops one women from having her cancer missed, then ok. Hoops are tolerable.
My doctor is also sending me for genetic testing because I have no risk factors that they can see, my mom was adopted and never had cancer, my aunts either and I have no sisters. This is for Claire and I'm glad she decided to do this for her, since it's not automatic.
