Natalie, I like what you did with the story. Great Job! It was actually 13 years ago though that I was diagnosed with atypical hyperplasia. I hope I didn't say 19 years in the interview. Looking back I'm not sure if I was totally cognitively with it that morning:) Thanks again for the opportunity.

I had a breast biopsy done at Swedish American several years ago. The doctors and nurses were so kind and considerate. Through the procedure they explained what they were doing and talked to me about my personal life to keep me comfortable mentally. They are great people.

The MRI biopsy (non-surgical option) is wonderful news. I have worked in the medical imaging field for a number of years and am always interested in learning about advancements in the imaging field that help provide patients with more accurate information. There seems to be a lot in the news lately about the use of MRI -- for stress tests, Alzheimer's research and other. Marge www.remakehealth.com
