First mammogram after dx - not great...
I've been reading a lot of post here and notice how supportive you all are. I went for my 1 st mammogram this week, now that chemo and radiation are behind me, and am now scheduled for a biopsy on friday. There are some "calcifications" that could be harmless or could be dcis, in the same area of my original lumpectomy. Has this happened to anyone here? I just finished radiation at the end of January. Needless to say, the waiting is not fun, and I don't want to tell my family (except my husband who was with me) until I know what to tell them. Sometimes it sure is hard to pretend that all is going well...
