Common sense....

I think it might make some sense for care providers to at least ask and put their notes not only the family history of bc, but what kind of bc when each mammogram is done. Even if we have mixed genetics on both sides, if the breast cancer happens to be only on one side, or if the type of breast cancer is the same on both sides, it would give them a leg up when it comes to the cancers that are harder to detect.... any one know of any research on such a simple idea?
