I am NOT THAT OLD, am I? (Bex)

Nothing makes you feel like you are aging like your doctor saying to you: "You need to have a mammogram done."

Yes, I have a family hx, an aunt with breast cancer... but I'm only 35.

OMG, I am 35. When did that happen? How did I get here? And, WTF am I doing?


Anyway, so I went and had the mammogram today. Not because there are any problems, just because of my age and family hx, he wanted it done as preventative, or whatever. So, you stand there naked from the waist up and some stranger manipulates your boob into this xray machine and then closes the "thingie" and OMG... it actually hurt a little. But man, this lady had no problem just pulling and tugging and placing every piece of my skin (because that's all that's left to the girls) into her machine... It was a little weird. And I'm no prude, and no stranger to the manipulations of healthcare workers.

I do hope everything comes back fine, not that i'm worried... just sayin'...
