Some of you might recall one of my first threads ever, [found here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=101459), from all the way back in December. The gist of it is that I found a very scary lump in my breast and was very freaked out about it. Well, after being bumped around to about a thousand and one doctors, I had an ultrasound done back in January, which revealed nothing. Pooh. So I got to be scared and worried for another two months, but over Spring Break a week and a half ago I had a consult with a breast surgeon, who took a look around and reassured me that the lump is really just how my breast is _supposed_ to feel. Hurrah for fibrocystic breast disease ::eyeroll:: Anyway, this is just an update for those of you who were concerned, and thank you very much for your support in the first place. 🙂 It’s nice to know that people care. ---

Always good to hear that what you think may be big problems have turned out to be nothing. I had a similar experience with a different part of my anatomy. ---
