The Cat In The Jacket

She managed to crawl between the fleece the outer skin of the jacket and then proceeded to bite anything she could find.  Great fun for her, not so great for my jacket.

I had quite a day.  There was meant to be a MRI appointment to scan something that has been sore for 4 months - not my back.  They decided to not go through with the MRI.  But they carried out 2 other procedures.  The ultrasound was pretty straigtforward - and here comes the twist- I suspect I'm the first man you know who had a mammogram.  To use a line from Strictly Ballroom "That was unexpected".  And also pretty uncomfortable.

There is a problem with the moob* and it will need an operation or 2.

The moral of the Blip is:- if you discover a lump (and in this case a lump that hurts), go direct to your doctor, get it checked. Waiting is rubbish.  Pain is rubbish.  And hoping that lumps are just going to go away is not wishful thinking, it's dangerous.

That's my public health announcement.

Forget the mental image you have and concentrate on the cat.
