Oh this is just so comforting to read! I've been putting off having a mammo but recently I noticed a small lump. My gyno thinks it's just normal breast tissue but I'm going Monday for a mammo just to be sure. I can't wait now!

Carolyn I don't know where you go for your mamo, I go to the womens center at Riverview Hospital in Redbank. They are excellent there , I went for my yearly visit a few weeks ago and they have upgraded their equipment to ditigal which is better for they say it works like the ditigal camera. I have calcium deposits so I have to go once a year. Don't put off your visit I am sure its nothing but keep abreast of things...dont punt intended lol Good luck and try the womens center...

I have to go to Freehold Radiology and I'm not going to Freehold! They are so booked that I'm going to their office in Morganville (Marlboro). I don't know if they have digital but I hope so!

Thanks!

Digital is supposed to show things that the film mammo's don't. They believe they will be able to detect problems sooner. Sure hope so!! I'd try to go where digital is available if they can arrange it.

Hope it turns out to be nothing!!
