We are strong proponents of second opinions. I suggest you seek a second opinion, and make sure that you have all of your film/images and radiology reports with you to take to the appointment.

A few questions come to mind and please bear in mind that I am not a physician or a nurse. How old are you? Do you have a family history of breast cancer? Do you have any known risk factors (e.g., not having given birth to a child before age 30)?

We can help you with suggested questions to ask about breast cancer screening as well as information on risk factors and breast health. Please let us know if you would like such information. We can also send you information on how to choose a well-qualified breast imaging center (you can find great links in the resource section of our site at winabc.org). Our main office telephonne number is(626)332-2255. Please let us know how you are doing.
