Hi,
This may come thru twice as I am new to this site.
I had surgery 11/30/06 (lumpectomy and lymph node removal) My surgeon decided my first post surgery mammo should be late Dec. of this yr. or early Jan. My radiologist gaveme some excellent adivse - many times scar tissue shows up as "something" and we get scared to death. Do not panic until you see your surgeon. Hioe wthis helps.
