Showing Original Post only (View all)My sister's going in for ultrasound tests this morning as a follow-up to a bad mammogram [View all]
She's 67 years old. I've never seen her frightened in my life. This morning, she is terrified.
Vibes, prayers, etc. are welcome. It's 7:45 right now, her tests are scheduled for 11:30. I don't know how soon I'll know anything after that. I'm in California, she's in Nevada, so I can only offer her long-distance support.

Mammography has a high degree of false positives--and the longer you have a history

I have one friend who went through it, and another who's a nurse...both echoed what you shared.
