Perfect!

This afternoon I had a six-month checkup with the breast surgeon. She said everything looked and felt "perfect" so I'll take that! I'll go for another visit with her in six months and also have either a mammogram or an MRI at that time.

There was a time, in the not so distant past, that I needed all of these doctors appointments and the reassurance that each provided that everything was OK. Now they just annoy me and hamper my ability to get on with life. I understand why it's important to be followed so closely. I just wish it weren't such a pain in the rear.
