You girls are totally cracking me up with this thread!!!

I am bigger on one side than the other...by like a centimeter! I have no boobs either. My hubby LOVED it when I was breastfeeding our kids. He said it was like having the boob fairy at our house. HA! I think I should be offended by that
I wish I could help you with this one, Nugget, but I have never had a mammogram. I hear it's better now than it used to be...hopefully! Let us know how it goes, k?

thanks Fancy. So you are a member of the OBB (One Boob Bigger) Club, too? Wow, there's more of us than I thought!

I told my husband the other night after he whistled (you know how guys do) when I was getting ready for bed...."Just wait," I said..."after Friday, they'll be bigger!" Ha!

I told my mom that when I go to Curves Monday, that I'll probably have to tie them over my head to keep them out of my way when working out...or toss them over my shoulders. Ha!

I want to hear from you tomorrow after it's all over...
For some of us "more mature women" - the "Curves" thing could almost be true! One of my favorites: an elderly woman called the ER one night and asked where your heart is located (she did not tell the nurse, but she was anticipating committing suicide by shooting herself and wanted to make sure she had the exact location). The nurse in the ER said - with most women it's right under the left boob. Later that night the same elderly woman was brought to the ER w/ a gunshot wound to the knee!! Get it....sagging boobs!!!???? {{Hugs}}

Hey I'm by no means elderly but they are already on their way south! I would like to know how to buy a bra that fits right. Do you buy for the big one and stuff the other or do you buy for the little one and bulge over the top? My hubby likes the bulging,more for him to fondle but it really doesn't look great in a t shirt!

Well, it's over. Whew! Like everyone said, it wasn't that bad. "They" are kind of red where they were squeezed by the machine....hope the redness doesn't turn into bruises...I bruise easily. But it wasn't bad.

Also had a kidney stone xray as a 2-year Check-up on some stones that showed up a couple years ago. So will go to the doc about that next Tuesday....

Then...I recently had blood work done after my physical because I told my doc that I've been real tired alot lately...they called me and left a message on my cell phone when I was in getting my mammo done and said that my TSH (thyroid) levels were high and they want me to have it re-tested in 2-3 weeks

But now....for the good news.....I've been eating more salads lately with no problems! And I haven't used ANY Imodium for almost 2 weeks!!! What's up with that? I'm usually IBS-D.
