Progress...

I was finally able to make an appointment with a surgeon...the first surgeon I saw left me waiting for 2 hours past my appointment time, his office was cold, he didn't bring in a nurse during the exam just left the door open, and apparently didn't read my chart closely enough to see the part at the top where it said I'm 17 weeks pregnant! He started pushing on my belly really hard and I had to enlighten him...I thought maybe the poor guy was just having a really rough day but a nurse friend of mine said all of that was totally out of line(I was pretty sure, but really trying to give him the benefit of the doubt), besides the fact he wants to go ahead and just do a lumpectomy rather than a biopsy first.  So after a lot of insurance research and my friend's input, I have an appointment with a really great surgeon and can hopefully put all this behind us soon!
