Hi @Concerned Daughter, I had a mastectomy in June last year, no chemo or radiotherapy but hormone therapy and the first scan I have had since was a mammogram on remaining breast and an ultrasound on my foob - 12 months after surgery. I won't be having any other scans until next year when I will have a bone density before my tablets are swapped from tamoxifen to an Aromatase Inhibitor. I think I'll probably have another ultrasound and mammogram again then. It's funny because everything is go, go, go when someone is having active treatment and then there's nothing except appointments. The only thing I would recommend is to report any worries, changes if they occur. We all worry about recurrence but that's the beauty of being able to phone and make another appointment if anything crops up, either with Oncologist, Radiologist or GP. Hope this has helped a little bit. Wishing you both all the best. Xx Cath
