Title: 30 years ago .......
Post by: CLKD on June 13, 2025, 07:28:14 PM

I underwent surgery to remove a breast lump which had 'changes on the margins'; two lots of operations, a bone scan [all over body X-ray], 4 weeks of radiation followed by regular mammograms and check ups.

The lump wasn't seen on mammogram but found on palpation whilst washing in the bath.

This is such an important reminder that mammograms aren’t foolproof and we still need to listen to our bodies. Good on you for checking and acting quickly, wishing you continued good health

Tnx.  The reason that I remember when I felt it, whilst washing in the bath, was it was Mum's birthday.
