Bilateral Mastectomy BOOKED !
I am soooo grateful and relieved ! .... grateful for our public health system and relieved that my request for a bilateral mastectomy was not challenged - it was granted. Surgery is booked for 30 Jul...
Hi Sue,
Second opinion, I thought that was the case. My daughter broke both her wrists, was sent home with the ok no broken bones, to get a phone call 4 days later to come back as both were broken. I have always wondered about my mammograms as well, same (radiology department as daughter). I was given all clear 5 months prior, it was a new GP who said she wasn't happy with fatty tissue as mentioned on report.
Fatty tissue was ok, but 20 cm slow growing tumor on chest wall was found. I also have very dense breast tissue. The other odd thing that happened was that they lost my previous set of films. So had to go back to films 5 years prior for comparison.
I have now changed where I have my tests, I must check who is checking the checker. I must say the Radiologist is lovely, and comes in and has a chat to me now - should be getting frequent flyer points.
All the best
Candy
