There are lots of follow ups here to confirm whether the lesions are in need of treatment. My sister-in-law and the three friends I mentioned definitely had a lot more investigations to find out how dangerous the lesions were after their mammograms and before their treatment plans were decided on.Helen V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07989670682260643429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37267943.post-52098566232351418992015-08-20T20:17:00.185+08:002015-08-20T20:17:00.185+08:00I am certainly not underendowed Helen.

Those who are well endowed and those with very small breasts suffer most according to the radiographer I was chatting to. I confess that these days I take a precautionary dose of a strong painkiller so it is tolerable. Before it was pretty excruciating.Helen V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07989670682260643429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37267943.post-55420528136323413422015-08-19T20:57:59.936+08:002015-08-19T20:57:59.936+08:00I didn't have mammograms for years because I w...I didn't have mammograms for years because I was told it was like slamming your boob in a fridge door, or having them run over by a car. When I eventually ended up going, I wasn't sure what all the fuss was about after all. I have been several times over the years, but must admit I haven't been for a while now.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.com
