Fantastic!!! So good that your breast care nurse is stepping in to assist. Totally agree with going for the retest with the same technique - which is what they should be doing each time. I would have thought consistency was imperative. You must feel at times that your treatment plan is like the game chinese whispers as it gets passed from one to another to another!!! I'm sure a lot of us in suburbia don't realise how lucky we are to have a lot of our services on our doorstep and have a choice of hospitals, doctors etc. Hopefully you won't have to wait the two weeks.
