I'm glad to hear that nothing serious showed up with the fine needle aspiration and x-ray. Just curious though did they see anything at all with the fine needle aspiration? Any inflammation in particular? I'm kind of in the same situation with Nutmeg except with her fine needle aspiration they saw a lot of inflammation. Thanks.
