Re: Should I be worried? Feeling lost and scared again.
I have dealt with this twice. Both times it was nothing. You can insist on an MRI. Have you had one before? I am asking because it shows so much that the results could be scarier than what you are going thru now even though all the things it shows are benign. Another thought is getting another mammogram in 3 months or taking your current films and ultrasound images to another breast surgeon for a second opinion.
Its really hard not to worry so I hate to tell you not to when you will anyway. Just know we are here for you 24/7.
