Oh please get the mammogram! I know its a horrible thing to have to do but its worth saving your life. I just got my first last Monday because I had a lump. Now they are telling me it might be cancer. I am getting my results back from a biopsy taken last Wed and of course I am a nervous wreck. But think of the alternative. You don't want to be carrying around a malignancy when you could start to get rid of it. Knowledge is power! This site is an excellent resource - full of sisters who care. Please- for your family's sake if not your own - please go get one!

I've had two mammograms and neither one was painful.
Lisa,
I have had two Mammgrams, neither painful, just uncomfortable. 19th March last years aged 39 I was diagnoised with BC.
You know you have a lump and it is on your mind. Do you seriously think you will be able to get on with a normal life and forget about it? As Jen1967 said, knowledge is power. Unfortunately a Mammogram and Ultrasound are the tests for BC. Of course none of us want to go through these tests, but the alternative, well that's for you to decide.
