Hi Maggie101,
It's Lisa from the Policy Team. I just wanted to jump in to let you know that in most states and territories in Australia, women affected breast cancer are now able to return to BreastScreen five years after diagnosis, and earlier in some states. It might be worth contacting a BreastScreen service in your state to talk about whether you may be able to receive a mammogram through BreastScreen.
Though, to find a specialist who will be able to manage your follow up care in an ongoing way, you may like to get a referral from your GP to see a breast surgeon or breast physician, or a breast clinic in your area if there is one.
Best wishes,
Lisa
