Tera - I concur with the wiser folks who've posted above me. Don't be alarmed by all the fancy words! It's natural to be worried about your health but from everything I've read I have to agree with Cheryl, Gary and Eric. They are three of the sharpest minds and most experienced posters here.

Enjoy the holidays, have the thing checked out for sure - that's a prudent step any of us would recommend, take those deep breaths and don't worry!
