All right, it is the Mojo in the Morning Show. The phone number is 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. We'll have the Dirty coming up here in just a little bit. So you talked briefly on the show, and you haven't really gotten into it, but you said that you were going to be going in to have a medical procedure done.

Yep.

And you haven't really told, I mean, I don't even kind of know what's going on, and I don't know if you want to share or not share, but you're going in to have that done on Monday?

I am, yeah. So a week from yesterday, and it's one of those things where it's just been taking up so much space in my brain for the past couple of months that I am so ready to have this over with. And anybody who's ever had any kind of like little health scare knows it just weighs on you, right? Until you can get some answers. And Mike, this actually goes back to, um, it was something that you were talking about. I can't even remember that prompted me to finally go and get the mammogram. Oh, I pulled a muscle in my back. Yes. Yes. So this was like end of the summer, beginning of the fall. Um, and so I, I went to get it done. Dr. Werner had been wanting me to get it done for like a year or two. I had that dang prescription in my purse. It had like expired by the time that we had that conversation and I had, I had to get another one, but I went to, um, I went to get my mammogram done before I even got home. They had called me for a follow-up mammogram, which they said, by the way, is very normal for a first time. So I was prepared for that. They don't know what, what your boobs look like. You know, they don't have anything to compare to. So I, that, I, that did not scare me at all. Well, that second mammogram led to an ultrasound of some enlarged lymph nodes that they saw in my underarms. And then it kind of just like has gone from there. That led to another ultrasound. And then I had a biopsy of a lymph node done. And because that biopsy showed some not so great stuff um it showed like a a small subpopulation of what looks like lymphoma cells now i have to have a lymph node or several taken out and they're going to run a whole bunch of tests on them to rule out any sort of lymphoma in my body so super scary and have they talked i mean because i i'm

I'm not a doctor, but I don't.

they talk to you about like what is the what's what is is this routine is this not routine like

what what is this um I I mean I think for what they they what information they have this is this is the direction to take it okay you know and and I I really feel like and I said this before when I was kind of vague about having this surgery upcoming I really feel like in my gut I will be

fine yeah um and because i'd be like why are you waiting till monday like why didn't we get you in

well no i mean so i had had this surgery scheduled for valentine's day in fact and then the whole thing with my insurance happened and so then it got rescheduled until now and that's what also makes me feel better is nobody's in a rush to do this okay good all right so i feel i feel good about it but so i am having surgery i'm under i'm actually having two surgeries i have a little metal marker in my arm and so they're the first surgery they're attaching a wire to this little metal thing in my arm and then um to target kind of like the exact area where they're going and then the other is to do the actual incision of whatever they want to take out um I am so nervous I've never been put under before and really no no not even not even for wisdom like when I had my wisdom tooth out you were I just did like a local okay psycho yeah yeah it was psycho um so I'm terrified of that. Wes is going to be with me. I'm also terrified of what I'm going to say to him and serves me right because I've been through this twice with him and I made fun of him every time. Is he going to film you? Because we need that.

To go back to this real quick for a second before you guys get all silly on this whole thing because this is worrisome whenever you hear something like this and people want to So you went in, initially had a mammogram, then they brought you in again for another test, and then they said that they found cells that potentially they want to just be able to make sure that the cells are not cancerous?

Yeah. So basically how they explained it to me is when you biopsy a lymph node and they took like six little, six little pieces, which was not fun, by the way. And they, it's like they're, they're stabbing a jelly bean essentially. Right. And so it kind of depends on what they're taking out and they, they're not, they don't really have like a good picture of what's going on. So that's why at this point they're just going to take out, you know, the whole thing or a couple. I don't know. I hope it's just one.

all right so it doesn't sound super fun okay so now you now you can make fun of her for being right well but won't you feel bad megan if god forbid yeah make fun fun of her no i'm not sure i understand what lymphoma is like i don't really fully understand exactly what it is there are

actually a lot of different kinds of lymphoma but it's a oh did i say it wrong no no no it's it's like a blood cancer okay okay yeah it starts like lymphoma is cancer that starts in your lymph system again this is like we are hoping to rule that out do do they say to you like if you would

not have gone in for a mammogram that it could get worse if they don't check it out like obviously the prayers are that it's not right anything that is cancerous uh or or to cause any kind of cancer but do they say if you don't go check this out that it can turn into something did they talk

about that um they didn't really talk about it i was just really thankful my mammogram ended up being clear which was wonderful news it was just this like everyone was like you're you have has anybody ever said anything to you about your lymph nodes you have really really you have big lymph nodes um and yeah so because you've had skin cancer before removed from my leg twice yeah thank god i mean and that's why i'm so crazy about tanning beds and telling people just go to the dang dermatologist it takes 10 minutes you know and let them check your body because that's a that can be

scary hey brie what's up hi i was just calling to let you know i actually uh had a little bit of a tumor removed two fridays ago and i'm having another one removed this thursday um it's actually not as scary the anesthesia is actually really good you'll wake up you'll feel very refreshed um they're really good about taking care of you making sure that you're not anxious so you'll be all good the one thing that does suck right now is they normally are not allowing people to go back with you but they'll give you anxiety medication if you need it and they'll take really

good care of you. Bree question what made you go in to get discovered that you had this these

cancers to remove? So actually I had my tubes removed in November and I had a bit of a complication after that procedure where I just couldn't stop bleeding for some reason so I went in and that's and they realized the first one, and then they removed that out of my uterus, and the next one is actually my stomach. I'm getting some stomach biopsies done.

Okay. Yeah, I had a chest CT done. Yeah.

just the going under part although she said it's like a big nap that is intriguing yeah yeah i i

went under for a colonoscopy um and going under for the colonoscopy i woke up just a little groggy but it almost feels like you have a great sleep when you do it and obviously having the surgery the heart surgery and you know and stuff yeah um but you never want to go you know that's the fear of of that you don't ever want to do that but thank god you're going to do this and you're getting checked out because you know the preventative part you know I oh for sure I've said this often that my mom had cancer pretty much everywhere and it started with breast cancer she knew she had a lump and she never told my dad who was a doctor yeah because she feared that it was cancer and she did not want to go get checked out and she if she would have gotten checked out you know who knows what that would have done for her yeah and I mean I go back to that conversation

that randomly we had on the air and that was kind of my kick in the butt to finally go get it done and while it this this really didn't have anything directly to do with my mammogram it it definitely this was what that was what kind of opened you know my eyes and their eyes to something else that

was potentially going on so you might have to bring this up early in the show when all we have all the nurses listen to us on that first shift as they're going in and ask them like how what ask them what to wear, how to prepare, cute underwear, things like that.

Do they judge you?

It's funny, they always ask you to put stuff in your bag. And they tell you, oh, here, put it all in the bag. But I know they go through the bag to look at how bad your stuff was. And Mike, speaking of shaving, I groomed the hell out of myself before I had open heart surgery from my aneurysm. I remember you talking about this. And then they come in with a razor and start grooming me more. I'm like, am I that hairy? Look at this masterpiece I just put together for you guys. I was so disappointed at the time.

Well, I asked my surgeon if while she was in that vicinity, she could just do a little something, something to my boobs.

And she said no. What would you want to have her do? Do you think she's checking you for potential cancer and you want her to what?

I know. Perk them up a little bit?

She didn't think it was funny. Oh.
