Medical Test Results

[judifilksign]

 The short answer:  I'm okay.

My pap smear came back normal.
My mammogram came back normal.

My ultrasounds showed that I have ovarian cysts, and uterine cysts.  They are similar to the ones that I've had before.  Since they are not causing me pain, only blood at odd times, this is considered a nuisance rather than a medical crisis.  Periomenopausal symptoms.  (In other words, welcome to getting older.)

If I experience pain, or my bleeding gets worse, I am to call my doctor again to discuss treatment options.  We will keep monitoring this yearly.

Yeah, to be taken care of when they really bug you is something one can live with.
Do be sure to get them out when they do bug you, it will feel better to have them out when it is the right time.
So says my friends who have had cysts.

good

If the bleeding occurs often enough, be sure to watch out for anemia!
