Guest guest Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 And this is the breast expert? Holy shit. May your pressure be low!CE Grim MS, MDSpecializing in DifficultHypertension I heard from a nurse on Friday that the mammogram came back "normal". I asked what the bumps were and she wasn't sure. I asked why they didn't do an ultrasound and she wasn't sure. I wrote PCP a note and told her I wanted the exact report and to see the pictures! Today I had an appt to check my thumb that I injured when I crashed my 4-wheeler 4 weeks ago. I saw a very good PA who had it x-rayed. She pulled the pictures up and reviewed them with me. I then asked her if she could pull up the mammogram and explained I had gynecomastia. Her first question, "Are you on Spironolactone?" We looked at the pictures and she thought they looked normal and explained what we would see if there was a problem. I asked about the ultrasound and she explained that many times they did that for men because their breasts were so small and dense, that was not my problem in her opinion! She thought I was approaching a "B" whatever that means! - 65 yo super ob. male - 12mm X 13mm rt. a.adnoma with previous rt. flank pain. Treating with Meds. And DASH. .

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 NO, It was a nurse delivering a message. Today was a PA doing me a favor unrelated to why I was there! > > > I heard from a nurse on Friday that the mammogram came back " normal " . I asked what the bumps were and she wasn't sure.
