So ... I received a Breastscreen NSW reminder for my 2 yearly mammogram!
Who else has received their Mammogram Reminder after being diagnosed & treated? Last week, I was a bit surprised to receive a reminder to have my 2 yearly mammogram as I thought there might be some...
I had my reminder last month, two months into treatment. I also had a pap smear reminder after an op to remove what turned out to be a benign polyp :/
My breast cancer lump was very far round, below my armpit in the top quadrant.
I wonder if the Breastscreen would have seen it on my last mammogram, nearly two years ago, as when I went in to have the lump screened they made me do a second mammogram and turn a bit more to get it in. I'd like to share this information with Breastscreen, but I'm also angry that there is no communication between the health records to tell them I have been diagnosed with Breast Cancer, and it sounds like that is across the board?! Surely that would help with statistics etc?
