I went in for back xrays, and they found calcification upper right quadrant and calcified uterine fibroid. Now they wants tests. I'm terrified.
Cancer runs in my family. Mr X said of coarse schedule the OB and ultrasound. I want to not and bury my head in the sand. I can't take one more thing. I'm 58. Mother died of lung cancer at 60.
So anxious. TY for reading. Hope everyone is ok

You’re doing all you can to address it. We’re here to talk and more importantly, to listen. 
"You should have done X,Y and Z and you didn't."
When I get really anxious I try something like counting backwards from 1,000 by 7. It's enough that I have to keep my mind engaged but not that much that I get really frustrated.
You are surrounded by friends here. 
I so hope that whatever it may be is very treatable. In the meantime, we are with you in spirit and here for you.
women have fibroids. The calcified ones are just fibroids that are all and became hardened. Unless you have pain or bleeding, doctors usually leave them alone. Hope yours are not symptomatic.
It's so hard getting abnormal test results, made even worse over the holidays. Pray you can find some peaceful relaxing times and even enjoy yourself some.
I look forward to the holidays being over! My stepson passed away on Christmas Day 2011 due to an OD of OxyContin while drinking alcohol. My husband gets so depressed this time of year, it brings me down, too. You never really get over something like that. The stepson was a huge animal lover, so we go to shelters and make donations in his name. He also loved playing guitar, so we donate to charities that help kids get instruments. There is a charity called Guitars Not Guns that gives at risk kids guitar lessons. Their mission statement: "Music has the power to heal. We instill a love and appreciation of music that children can carry with them for the rest of their lives.
Stress relieving hugs sent your way!

I read their benign. I'm worried about yet another call about finding calcifications in my bteasts.
I'm so, so sorry. I hope the holidays are peaceful and bring you all some joy
Stop making up things until you know something! 
I understand it though and I do it on occasion myself. Just know you are loved and have people who are there for you. (At least I hope you do!)
