(((((((((Alpal))))))))) My DD will be 34 in Dec.  Her GYN said she will give her a mammo when she is 35, because she is at High risk.

Jill H.  YEARLY mammogram found my lump.  Saw ob-gyn the same day as mammogram and she did not feel the lump.  No family history.  If I had waited to go every 2 years,  my diagnosis would probably have not been as favorable.  St.1, Gr 1, 1 cm, 0/3 nodes-IMC.

The report also said breast self-exams do no good and women shouldn't be taught to do them.  Thank God I did!  A September 2008 mammogram didn't find anything for me.  In April 2009, I found the lump myself.  It was 2 cm when removed in June.
