Well, here's a good one for you all - Six o'clock this morning (having watched moonlight pad slowly across the ceiling like a cat), gave up and decided, as Tuesday's list was already completed, there had to be something else to do. As I like baking bread, went to get scales down from the top of the cupboard. I slipped and the household woke to the sound of me landing like a ton of bricks against the sink.
Nothing appeared to be broken, but the bit where my lump was found was really, really sore. Said more rude words and got ready for the appointment.
One scan later and the consultant announces that it would appear that I had a cyst which has apparently burst this morning and therefore does not require any treatment at all! I have to have a follow up scan in a couple of weeks to see if it comes back, but nothing to worry about!



So thank you all so much for your positive thoughts!

Thats fantastic Jo, really pleased for you, I hope the relief from the worry isnt affected by the pain from the fall.

Ok I have done the sandwiches already for tomorrow, cleared the kitchen and dining room table, so its looks like I have some leisure time which is a first and doubly good as DH is home this evening so we can watch something on TV together.

See you all tomorrow
