Re: early Christmas present--10 yr overall & bc specific survival results just publis
Debbie,
The report went on to say that “…while the incidence of early-stage breast cancer increased significantly in the period between 1976 and 2008,
I was dx. early sage small tumor via mamogram.
For me and the others who were dx. early I see the beneift of the exam.
The report continues:
The incidence of late-stage disease decreased only slightly and the incidence of metastatic breast cancer did not change at all.1 More data continues...
Debbie - I would ask - was this group - their first exam?
Or had they been going on a yearly basis?
I had been having mammograms exams on a yearly basis. Having had dense breast it helped during those years to track any changes in the breast.
While I have to accept the report I still need more information on the groups that were early dx. and those that were later. Have lots of questions.
Thank you again Debbie,
Jean
