I have been getting mammograms for the past 5 years, I am now age 40. I was getting the mammograms cause my mother had breast cancer at the age of 55, she survived! She didn't have to go any chemo or anything, her breast was removed and some lymph nodes. Well anyhow, I went in March 2003 for a mammogram at a different hospital and it showed that I had microcalcifications and was told to repeat the mammo in 6 months, which was just the other day. I wasn't told anything about the results, I even called the drs and they told me no report back yet. I am so upset, concerned, worried and frightened. I have an 8 year old daughter and I am wondering how long I have til she has no mother. Maybe I am over reacting to this but I can't deal with it. I don't understand how I had a mammogram done for the past 5 years only to have this show up now, how could the other mammograms missed it? Please someone out there help me before I loose my mind! Thank you!
