Thirteen years ago, I had a routine mamagram, and when the technicion kept coming back to take a few more X-rays, I suspected that there was a problem. There was. I had a carcinoma in my right breast, which was too small to feel in a manual breast exam. A lumpectomy and six weeks of radiation has left me cancer free ever since.
There may be controversy over mamagrams, but this one saved my breast and possibly my life. I urge all women to have their routine mamagrams.
