Yes, Claire, on my first one a couple of years ago... mine was fine, eventually.... but it would seem that my boob hadn't been squashed quite enough to get a decent picture. It is often for something as simple as that... when I had my last one a couple of weeks ago, she told me that sometimes they don't get all the lymph glands in the pic... she took an extra one of mine just in case... it came back ok. |

Yes, I had a recall and know how the waiting time is very worrying. Mine turned out to be two small cysts. Will be thinking of you do you have long to wait? I had 2 weeks. |

Some years ago I had a recall and of course worried like mad and although the return date was quite soon after the initial screening, it seemed like a lifetime. In the end, everything was all right. |

I was told straight away after my mammogram that I definitely had cancer. Within a fortnight I was in hospital and recovering from having my breast and the underarm glands removed. Thats about 7 yrs ago, and my surgeon still sends for me to have the other breast examined. He doesnt agree that it is not worth bothering at my age, 74. |
