Confused re mammograms

Hi there,

I have been reading comments from people with abc who have had new primary cancers found during mammograms.  My concern is that the oncologist said that as I now have secondary cancer there was no point in having any more mammograms (had been having them annually since first diagnosis in 2003).  Is this a sign that he has, in a way, given up on me - no point because of limited future time frame? And if so, I really don't want to ask him because he might confirm what I don't need to dwell on.  I hope this all makes sense!  Thanks for reading, as it helps a bit being able to write about it.
