Battle of the Bulge: Update: Surveillance-versary!
http://wheniusedtolovemyboobs.blogspot.com/2011/06/update-surveillance-versary.html
Monday, June 20, 2011. So, I'm a big fat loser. My surveillance-versary was June 10th! I guess in the midst of not obsessing over my high-risk, I stopped thinking a little too much about it! So at the risk of being accused of having a defeatist attitude (again) here is what I have accomplished:. 1 I had one Mammogram. 2 I had one MRI. 3 I had one Biopsy. 4 I performed at least one self breast exam each month (probably 2 realistically). 6 I tested for the BRCA gene. 7 I told my story. 15 I joined a gym an...

Battle of the Bulge: It's my Surveillance-versary!
http://wheniusedtolovemyboobs.blogspot.com/2011/06/its-my-surveillance-versary.html
Saturday, June 18, 2011. So, I just realized, it's nearly July. July to many people is Independence Day, summer vacation, barbeque's, camping, 90 degree weather, boating, ridiculous air conditioning bills. To me July is my annual mammogram. And, because my first MRI (aka, January) came back with an area of suspicion that needed to be biopsied, I need to run the MRI again. Hopefully on the same day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Battle of the Bulge: Avoidance
http://wheniusedtolovemyboobs.blogspot.com/2011/11/avoidance.html
Wednesday, November 30, 2011. So, I haven't blogged in a while. Which is a good thing, because I wasn't allowing my risk to take over my thoughts and my life. Then I discovered my ex, THE ex's, wife (whom I adore) was diagnosed with BC AND is High Risk only to further learn she is BRCA . Talk about close to home. Then I became curious:. Is she on as strict of a surveillance regimen as I am? Did her doctors inform her of her options? Did they know the severity of the gene? December 13, 2011 at 10:59 AM.

Wednesday, May 25, 2011. Update: Race for the Cure, Walk for the Fundraiser. She wanted to be a part of the event and together the three of us conquered the 5K (although walking in Detroit with 40,000 other participants, we likely walked at least 5 miles!

Battle of the Bulge: March 2011
http://wheniusedtolovemyboobs.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 1, 2011. How to explain your scars. Approximately every other month, every two months, someone posts on FORCE about how to explain all of this when you're dating. When do you tell, I think is the biggest question for everyone who is single and high risk. I think surgery or no surgery, anyone with scars faces the question even more. So when do you tell? I dont' know. How do you explain it when you do choose to? What do you say? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). About the Boob Owner. Hereditary Br...

Battle of the Bulge: Call me, maybe!?!
http://wheniusedtolovemyboobs.blogspot.com/2012/08/call-me-back.html
Thursday, August 9, 2012. Call me, maybe! It's been 66 hours since I had my annual Mammogram/MRI. This is what the inside of my brain sounds like:. Why haven't they called me? Why does the hospital run so many commercials during the Olympics? Is it to keep reminding me that they haven't called? Is not calling yet good news or bad news? Google "Mammogram Photos." Should I call them? Why haven't you called me yet? Okay, phone's ringing. Not them. Why haven't they called me? August 9, 2012 at 8:15 AM. A (st...

Sunday, July 10, 2011. Surveillance is a lot like Prostitution. . . . At the end of the day we're both paying someone else to fondle our goodies and keeping our fingers crossed for negative test results ;). Labels: breast cancer humor. July 10, 2011 at 11:36 PM.

Battle of the Bulge: January 2011
http://wheniusedtolovemyboobs.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Alicia Keys sings the line so beautifully:. Cause I'm a Superwoman, yes I am, yes she is, even when I'm a mess, I still put on a vest, with an S on my chest, oh yes, I'm a Superwoman.'. These two little spots, markers, alterations in my physical being change the way I see myself. They change the way I feel about myself. How will I see myself 5 years from now, 10, 20? How many spots, markers alterations will I have then? How will I feel about myself then? After a bit of phone ...
