I had a breast lump Aug. 2006, so had a mammogram. I got a call afterwards saying, everything's fine. So the lump has remained. I went to the doctor this month for a check up and she was alarmed by the lump, but I told her it had been checked out and was nothing. She said it wasn't normal, I got another mammogram and an ultrasound. REsults: mammographically, there is a 2cm nodule seen anterior to the breat tissue near immediate subcutaneous location. Ultrasound demonstrates a 1.7 x 1.4 x 1.5 cm hyoechoic nodule. biopsy suggested. The mammogram of 2006 shows no lump, though it was definitely there, so that is why they said everything was fine. We also have no measure of the lump then to see if it has changed. It seems like an error on the part of the doctor not to pursue finding out what the lump was. Is the fact the lump wasnt perceived by the mammogram in 2006 any comfort, or rather the opposite?
