I’m 48 and have always been “deemed” as having heterogeneous breasts. I haven’t missed a year. They would only do ultrasound and 3D mammogram . Two biopsy as well.
Over the 8 years… multiple call backs. This year…they cleared my left breast but told me my right breast had cancer. My faith was really never with them. I decided to go to a bigger city an hour away to speak to breast surgeon. They ran their tests which were an mri and cat scan. They found cancer in my left breast and it was a bigger size then the right. I’m not blaming the radiologist. We just need them to give us MRIs to begin with. I’m thankful that it’s stage 1. It still blows my mind that I was cleared on one. I’m having DMX on 4/19 and I will fight every year for a MRI to check the areas around the breasts, underarms and chest wall. What’s scary is the thought they would have cleared both breasts.
