Ladies, I have been signed off from routine mammos and ultrasounds now as 7 yrs clear.(43 yrs old now) Had a mammo last month via employers free health scheme, called back due to density area showing on health breast (had mast and recon on other breast 7yrs ago) which hospital are sure is a fibroadaema (sorry for spelling) and therefore not a nasty, got to have a biospy just to make sure, this is all doing my head in!! Wish Id have never bothered with the mammo last month and just been happy that I have been signed off and therefore not a concern to the hopsital, If I hadnt had the mammo, I would be none the wiser and this innocent little lump could just stay where it is (even consultant said that it didnt have to be removed). On the other hand, was I right to have the check just to make sure - dont think I can stand all this man handling ever few years, just want to be left alone. Do I say enough is enough and stay breast aware and not take up any annual checks now or do I take my annual mammos from work and also take the possible recalls and biopsies ? ERRRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!
