[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get annual mammograms. That said, the research shows that mammograms barely save lives. Early detection increases your survival rate by under 1% overall. [/quote] How much would you value the costs and benefits of a lumpectomy instead of radical mastectomy, no chemotherapy, no recurrence?[/quote] I get annual mammograms. I value it a lot. But the idea that mammograms save lives isn’t backed by research- or it should be amended to say that mammograms save very few lives. It’s worth it though if you’re one of the few. [/quote]
