Mammogram after double mastectomy
Did a search on the site and couldn't find much on this. My Oncologist does not recommend any further mammograms after my double mastectomy. Wondering how many of you have had a mammogram since surgery? He also said there is a change of rupture (I have silicone implants). His opinion is that at the moment I should consider myself "cured". Also, I had radiation so he thinks that would have knocked out anything left. Thank you!
