My first 40-something milestone

I just got back from the River Falls Area Hospital where I had my first 40-something milestone performed. Yep, I just had my very first mammogram done. What a bizarre thing. The radiologist was wonderful. She made it as comfortable as could be. Actually, I felt nothing really. I'm still trying to decide if having large breasts is a good thing or an embarassing thing when having a mammogram done. Let's just say that when that machine is squashing down on your breast, HOLY COW!!! It gives you a whole new perspective on the size of your breasts. LOL They'll read the mammogram on Monday and will let me know how things look. I'm sure everything will be just fine. I don't have any history of breast cancer in my family and I've never had any other problems, so I'm assuming all is well. Oh...just FYI: I will not be posting any pictures of me getting my mammogram. hehehe

Thanks for reading this. And if you haven't gotten a mammogram lately, PLEASE GO SCHEDULE YOURS NOW!!!! It's so important that we are our own health advocates.

Love,
Melody
