National Mammogram Day

Who just had a mammogram? When are you scheduled for one, and which one of you are putting it off?

No I'm not old enough yet to be invited for a mammogram. I was chatting to an aunt just a few days ago who had some concerns with one of her breasts and had an ultra sound and a mammogram..she found the mammogram very uncomfortable

To all females. Do not let age dictate when you have a mammogram. If you have a problem or feel something that does not feel right or just not sure “GO TO A DOCTOR”. Do not ask friends or family what you should do. Better to be safe than sorry.

Let the doctor tell you if you need a test or what it is you are feeling.

I'm having a mammogram in December. It's a short interval follow-up for my left breast and a routine screening on my right breast. I'll probably have an ultrasound also.

I hope I get the same mammographer who I got the last few times. I also hope my hormone therapy doesn't cause my fibroadenoma to grow. It was supposed to shrink or go away when I hit menopause.

My sister-in-law had breast cancer and got a double mastectomy at 25 or 26. Do not let age determine when you get a mammogram.

At yesterday’s physical, I received the order for a mammogram. Now I just have to call & schedule.

Good question/I think 🤔. I was 6 months late from notification. Then hospital wouldn’t give me an appointment unless I went 60 miles for my results from last year. DRAMA…PEOPLE …DRAMA! so I went to the 60 mile away, where they were happy to do it, no,problem, then, PROBLEM! Never 👎 happened before, not ever! Now the next day they want me to come back.

I started a campaign, messages, back and forth, asking for more information on “why should I come back?” My right breast to redo the mammogram or further something test??? After all that and vague answers, I told them a big FAT NO!!

Because they said it’s COMMON. I told them, sounds like they made a mistake, so NO. I’m not worried.

Until, I received a formal letter that changed my mind, so I go back in Dec.

But I’m still not worried, well, maybe 🤔 just a tensey tiny bit….lol lol 😂

my mother had breast cancer but she would not talk about it And in her 40s. I’m 72. Hell, I’m older than all of you here! Lol 😝

by the way, she lived to be 89 and cancer Never returned and she had a mastectomy!
