Hi beccabeca,
thanks for your reply . Wow i can’t believe what I read in your post .
I am not sure how long ago this was for you but I wish you the best for your treatment .
See mine didn’t show up either on mammogramme .... something did on the ultra sound . I don’t understand why MRI isn’t a given ( if patient is willing to pay ) as I understand it’s not covered my Medicare and it’s expensive. As my cancer is breast cancer and no nodes involved and hormone positive the prognosis seems good so far but I want to make the best decision now to minimize the chance of any cancer coming back .
Did they make it hard for you to get the MRI ir did they agree it was a good idea I wonder .
