[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 167102, member: 2211"] [FONT=Garamond][SIZE=3][COLOR=indigo]{{kjs}} I had a mammo a few years ago and they called me back to have another mammo as well as an ultrasound of the entire breast tissue. They said that my breasts were incredibly dense and they suspected it was not serious but wanted to be sure. After a very painful ultrasound that seemed to last forever (it was really only 15 minutes), the breast surgeon came in to speak with me. He assured me that everything seemed to be okay but that they would study the films better and get back to me. Later, my gyno called and told me to give up ALL forms of caffeine for one month and I had to redo the test then. I schedule it for right after my period so my breasts were not so tender - and it was my left breast and underarms that were showing small masses. The second set of films came back okay, but I had to go back again in 3 months, then 6 months, and then back to once a year. The DR was awesome and answered all my questions - they are used to the range of emotions from their patients.
