What a game changer.

@auntieoakley WOW! That truly is. Game changer. Years ago, during my breast mammo, they told me I had dense tissue. Then over several exams, no mention of dense tissue. I guess I had forgotten about it. It was not until I had an exam by a breast surgeon that he talked about my dense tissue and ordered up a MRI.
In my mind over the years, because it wasn’t mentioned I ‘thought’ it just went away 🤷‍♀️. I did not know in my younger days.
We all must stay vigilant. Great video & information. Thank you.
