Came up on xray for hip pain. Wasn't expecting that.
Several members of my family died from cancer, so I'm very hyper. Had melanoma. Thanks

They wedged it out and it was a benign calcification, thank goodness. Glad yours wasnt cancer. I really know that fear, my mom died of it, so did her mom long before I was born
