Hi went in for my 6 mos. mammo ( i had adh and family history).  They found two new sets of calcifications.  She scheduled me for a stereo. bio this friday.  I went thru this same scenerio last year.  I just had an MRI 6 mos ago and mammo one year ago.  I cannot believe  this is happening again.  I am scared and depressed.

    Hi shabby. So sorry that you are going through this. It really stinks-especially the waiting! What kind of family history do you have? Remember that most biopsies turn out to be benign-so here's hoping yours is too.

    If your family history concerns you, I would recommend that you see a Certified Genetics Counselor. I went through the same kind of stuff as you, so I understand. My CGC was really great.

    Please let us know what happens Friday, and when you get your results!

    I know it's hard but remember that you are doing everything you should be doing.  I have a family history too and when my bc was caught early, my doctor said this is exactly why we've been watching you closely, so we can deal with it early.  I also would recommend a genetics counselor.  Please let us know your results!
