2024 Wrapped Up
2024 wasn't a favorite year of mine. By day 4, I hated it. That's when I lost my sweet Sarge. Best old man ever! Let's start back to turning 40 in June 2023. That meant it was time for my 1st mammogram and colonoscopy. I had my mammogram in Nov '23 and unexpectedly it showed something questionable, several micro calcifications. That led to a follow-up, plus ultrasound and then an ultrasound guided biopsy in December. Also in November '23, I started experiencing crazy neck pain and then furthered to numbness down my right arm. In December, I visited the orthopedist to see what was going on. We tried treating with gabapentin after the X-ray didn't show anything. Gabapentin made me miserable - totally changed my mood. So 2024 started with uncertainty of my breast and neck (plus still being in pain). I visited a breast surgeon in January who took over my case and sent me for a stereotactic biopsy. This is one hell of a tortu...
