Hi
i had my first ‘anniversary’ mammogram last week having done the full chemo, surgery and radiotherapy… it wasn’t a pleasant experience and I was surprised how uncomfortable I felt going back to the hospital- I think I’d blocked the worrying but it came back full force!
I keep thinking it’s ok, nothing will be wrong and all that but the little voices are panicked… the 2-3 weeks are going very slowly!
hi i have recently finished my treatment of chemo and radio i am due to have my 1st mammogram in august ,one year after my operation,i am a bit nervous,does it hurt more than usual as my right breast is still very tender,will i have to tell them ive had treatment and op or will they have this info
They can manually adjust the mammogram machine so you have the minimum amount of pressure needed .I was still really tender at my first mammogram and the radiographer very slowly adjusted the machine to minimise the discomfort .
