sibling rivalry

in the spirit of NOT letting my sister beat me. looks like i'm following suit and getting a needle biopsy tomorrow of my thyroid gland.

felt some odd pressure going on at the base of my throat last week, went in for a fast check-up on Thursday, to have my doctor exclaim, "oh! we need to get you in for an ultra sound right away!" ;) not the most comforting words, but i had figured as much. unfortunately the ultra sound shows a couple of things that we need to check out....and check it out in the form of a needle biopsy.

definitely my bachi for laughing at my sister's anxiety ridden reaction to her needle biopsy last week....and as i told my dad. we all know that i'm the one one in the family with the medical issues, so when Cec said she had to have a biopsy, apparently my body figured, 'heck no. if she's gonna have one, we're gonna have one too! and we're gonna make the lump at least twice her size!'

:) so here we go. at least it was a good excuse for a 4 day weekend. (furlough friday) biopsy is 9:30 mon morning....test results for both of us back tuesday...think good vibes!
