[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP-- a few things. The other pp are really good and knowledgeable. While I haven't had b/c my grandmother, mother and aunt all died from it. It is something I live in fear of. I have had micro-calcifications which have been benign. Unfortunately my family is BRCA negative so getting insurance to pay to take my boobs off isn't going to happen. I haven't heard of anyone without a b/c diagnosis getting the BRCA test. Who recommended that? I worry that youse not be getting good information from your providers. I will tell you that my califications were found on MRI (I do mammo and MRI switching every six months) and I was in with ultrasound and biopsy two days later. Longest two days of my life!

It was a horrible time for us though and now I really dread every appointment. Regardless, hang in there, push for the answers you need and get off the Internet!!!  I will tell you that with both my Mom and my aunt both only found out because of a regular mammo. One year it was clean and the next it wasn't. No pain, no symptoms, no califications. Of course that was 10 years ago. Shoot, I don't know of that helps. But I have been there and I hate to think you are there too! [/quote]
