If your wife has symptoms I would simultaneously schedule an ultrasound with a breast surgeon and a mammo. Perhaps her OB/GYN can reccomend one. Call around for the mammos so you don't have to wait 2 months. If you see a surgeon first she might be able to expedite the mammo, or at least order an MRI.
If the surgeon says you have nothing to worry about, you can cancel other appointments. Good to get the ball rolling.
And unless you have a mastectomy, protocol is to have a mammo every other year beginning at age 40. Perhaps you can reduce the frequency after a certain age but I don't think your wife has hit that age yet. BB
