Mammography after breast lift
ok I know easier said than done but just relax and breathe! I'm sure they are just needing different pics and it very well may be scar tissue or a shifting of breast tissue.
I was called back to have a new mammo after the first mammo following my weight loss (but before BL). It was explained to me that the guy *****ads them compares prior mammo to current mammo and because of the significant weight loss there was an area of mass that was not on prior mammo and ultrasound just showed it to be a dense pocket of muscle tissue that had changed with 135 pound weight loss. Now worries.
Here's to a clean bill of health and lots of good things in 2013.

Well going through the process of additional tests while already getting mammography might cause anxiety in women. But you should understand that additional tests don’t necessarily indicate you have cancer. Although mammogram is the standard way to identify breast cancer early, breast ultrasound helps in making identification between a fluid-filled cyst and a solid mass. Both are performed through the help of medical instruments and signify symptoms early. Ultrasound generally cannot picture the whole breast at once, so it's used for checking closely the diagnostic spot already revealed during mammogram screening.
