If You’re Called Back After a Mammogram. Article date: October 3, 2014 By Stacy Simon Most women who get their routine mammogram will receive a letter within 30 days saying the results were normal. But if doctors find something suspicious, they’ll call you back – usually within just 5 days – to take new pictures or get other tests. Getting that call can be scary, but a suspicious finding does not mean you have cancer. What else could it be? A suspicious finding may be just dense breast tissue, a cyst, or even a tumor that isn’t cancer. What will happen at the follow-up appointment? You are likely to have another mammogram called a diagnostic mammogram. You may also have an ultrasound test that uses sound waves to create a computer image of the tissues inside your breasts. In addition, some women will have an MRI. You can expect to learn the results of your tests during the visit.
You will also get a letter with a summary of the findings that will tell you if you need follow-up tests or when you should schedule your next mammogram.

The research reports that consuming two ounces of nuts daily as a replacement for carbohydrates proved effective at glycemic and serum lipid control for people with Type 2 diabetes. “Mixed, unsalted, raw, or dry-roasted nuts have benefits for both blood glucose control and blood lipids and may be used as part of a strategy to improve diabetes control without weight gain,” said lead researcher Dr. David Jenkins.

The Cause of Diabetes 1. 2. 3. Diabetic Bedtime Snack Ideas. Low blood sugar during the night can be a concern for people with diabetes, especially those on insulin.
A 2003 study published in "Diabetes Care" investigated the impact of snack composition on nightly blood sugars in adults with Type 1 diabetes. The researchers concluded that bedtime snacks consisting of a carbohydrate and protein worked best in preventing low blood sugars when the bedtime blood sugar was less than 126 mg/dL. Most bedtime snacks contain about 15 to 30 g of carbohydrate, or two servings of a carbohydrate-containing food, and a serving of protein. It is not quite understood why protein helps to prevent nightly hypoglycemia, according to the authors of the "Diabetes Care" study, but it is believed to be related to the way protein is metabolized.
Crackers provide the carbohydrate and peanut butter provides the protein. Sandwiches also make a good bedtime snack for diabetics. Type 2 Diabetes. Diet & Nutrition | Canadian Diabetes Association.
