Ok, I won't lecture too much either. Is it just that you don't like to go or you just don't want to take the time to go? I faithfully go every year. God knows why cause as you know it's just not the most pleasant visit. Perhaps cause I LOVE my gynocologist that I keep going back. He's the best. I wish he were my family doctor. Anyway, I had my first mammogram at 35 also. I have fibrocystic disease(or lumpy, bumpy breast as one of my docs called it ). I did check my insurance first and they did cover it at 35. I had another at 36 and then again at 38. The radiologist actually scolded me for not having it yearly. So I plan to have another at 39 just because and then start regularly at 40. Ughhhh another submission of getting older!!!! Honestly they aren't that bad. I hear the smaller breasted you are the worse it hurts. I'm a C cup and it's not that painful. Yeah for the 4 seconds it's uncomfortable but not bad. I think it hurts my ribs more trying to get so stinkin close to the darn machine! Good luck with your first mammo and make it a point to get that pap test once a year! Oh and good luck on making a decision on "a baby maybe?"....
