Girlfriend second mammogram

My girlfriend is in her 30s and has been recalled for a second mammogram. She's worried sick especially as on the letter it says she has an appointment after the mammogram with the breast surgery clinic. Is this on all second letters? 

She was given the option of early screening due to family history and genetic testing. 

 

  • Hi AFC1903,

    I can imagine this must be causing a bit of concern. There is only so much that a mammogram can show, so they may have booked the clinic as a precaution for further tests in order to get all the information they need.

    I hope it's not too long to wait until this next appointment and that you find out more soon.

    Wishing you all the best,
