in regards to the dense breast issue we are all so passionate about (I also had very dense breasts) I always tell women to ask for and get a copy of each years mammo reports. My doctors dismissed me when I asked her if I had dense breasts - she dismissed me and told me I was fine (whatever that was supposed to mean) the radiologist report clearly gave the same disclaimer as everyone else seemed to have. Knowing my hypochondriac self I would have asked for an ultrasound had I read my report

YOUNG WOMEN - there is still a pubic misperception that this is a disease of older women. I was 42 (so not really considered all that young) but I did recently meet a 25 yr old and know several mid 30 year olds who also had BC - doctors are so ready to dismiss us younger patients because even they are unaware

great opportunity and good luck
