Hi Blossom1961, I’ve been doing this for 16yrs now.Every year I have a mammogram followed by an ultrasound on my remaining breast.The technician also runs the ultrasound over my armpit and mastectomy scar.I usually pick the films and report up the next day and then go see my breast surgeon a few weeks later.She looks at the films and checks my breast,chest, armpits,abdomen/liver.She then writes an X-ray form for next year and says’see you then’.I go to a private radiology centre but don’t pay anything.Perhaps you could talk to your GP who can organize mammo and ultrasound together? It doesn’t make sense to see the surgeon before you have the ultrasound.
