Also make sure if you have dense tissue (half of women!) to advocate for an ultrasound or even an MRI. Also had my first this week and it too was a breeze. www.thecut.com/article/brea...

For my insurance to cover a whole breast ultrasound, I had to have the mammograms first, and then have results that required followup. That led to two more sets of mammograms with negative findings. Ultrasounds are often ordered after positive findings with the second set of mammograms.

This was my experience as well.

Insurance won't pay if you don't start with a screening.

I mean, I didn't know I had dense tissue until I got my first screening. 🤷♀️

I'm one of them! Was told in the letter the doc sent me with my results. But I actually never heard about doing ultrasound/MRI. Thx for the tip! I'll have to remember that come January, see what the doc thinks. ❤️
