I have given a lot of thought to writing about the mammogram which I had this morning.
For a start there's the grumpy b*tch on reception who really doesn't make a nervous 1st timer welcome as she walked in the door and barks at you for using your phone...
There'd have to be a mention about the other lovely ladies who are very sensitive about handling your well... precious vessels.
There'd be a mention about the procedure itself (eep), the mammogram that is, the ultrasound was far less intense though a little, well, sticky...
I could write at length but I'm not going to.
All I'm going to say is that it was uncomfortable to be sure but by no means unbearable. There was no embarassment or discomfort about being so exposed.
And more importantly, I will add, that if you should be having early checks due to a family history, or if you have any kind of concern about your girls and you have been putting it off.
STOP IT!!! STOP IT AT ONCE.
Go and get it done, for the sake of your health and the sake of your loved ones.
[here endeth the lesson]
I was once in the Royal (Worst Hospital in) Melbourne Hosptial where they encouraged the use of mobiles so that they didn't have to provide telephones to patients. So which is it?
