Well I can't lecture. When I went to the doctor she asked when was my last one. I said I tend to be pretty regular because of the cancer in my family. Much to my shock and horror...it had been five years since my last one sad I know. Where does the time fly???
My question about mammograms is as follows. I was 33 when I noticed a lump in my breast. After 5 or so trips to the dr's office demanding "THE" test, she said well it wouldn't make a difference, I was too young for them to notice anything. So I raised a big enough stink and she eventually sent me for an ultra sound, she said it would be much better anyway. So....my question is, why can't we just all have ultrasounds...no squeezing there!!!!
sigh...I'll be the big 40 in a couple months so I guess I'll have to shedule that too
oh yea...the lump was non-cancerous.whew
