It’s so ironic that I found this article tonight b/c I just had a mammogram this afternoon. I have been putting it off since 2007! I know that women over 40 should get a
mammogram every year and now that I am 45, I fall into that category. Well, my right breast is ok but my feft breast has had some pain lately, and I’m not sure why. When the mammo tech squeezed my left breast into that mammo machine I almost hit the floor! It hurt so bad!
TO EVERY WOMAN THAT READS THIS MESSAGE,EVEN MEN IF YOU DON’T FEEL
RIGHT IN THE BREASTS “GET A MAMMOGRAM”.I’M A RECENT BREAST CANCER SURVIVOR JUST FINISHED RADIATION TREATMENTS,STILL RECOVERING. PLEASE GO GET ONE.
I’m a 50 year old man, I’ve have reoccurring breast pain. Doctor last year had me get a mammogram and the people at the breast cancer clinic said, it’s only breast growth. I am overly large, on testosterone replacement therapy, this can also cause breast pain as well.
