Mammogram

A MyBCTeam Member asked a question 💭
Brawley, CA

Does anyone know when is a good time to do their first mammo post treatment? I finished treatment in January and my gyno said to do my mammo now since its 1 year (May 2014) my last mammo in which I was diagnosed. I'm scheduled for this week. Any thoughts? I have also wondered what is the earliest reoccurrence you have heard someone having. Years or months??

It has been a year since my surgery and I am still sore. Is that normal?

@TinaHiganShannon do I understand correctly? You had reoccurrence a year after your last diagnosis?

I am too. It was a year in March. I did not do PT. But I stretch and am active. So I suppose it is normal. Sleep especially is sore. I feel like while on sides I'm sleeping on a cattle guard.

My first mammo post treatment was one year after the mammo that diagnosed me. (7 months after completing radiation)
