MRI after 3D Mammogram - dense breast tissue

I have dense breasts also. I have shared this on this site before but 2 months after I was told my 3D mammogram was negative for cancer I felt a lump and then an ultrasound detected a 2 cm adeno squamous metaplastic carcinoma. I fought for the ultrasound because I had read that 3D mammograms were missing cancer in dense breast tissue.

Maybe you should get a second opinion. What do you think?

Thank you for sharing your experience--I hope you are doing well!

After gleaning from other's experiences, I am certainly considering requesting the MRI, or as other's have mentioned, asking to have an MRI/Mammogram at 6 month intervals. Also, I am researching options for a second opinion.

Thank you!!
