Maybe Movement Tomorrow

It's been well over two weeks now that I've been trying to get a doctor to endorse an acceptable yearly breast screening program for me and to schedule an MRI as part of it.

I have an appt. with my ob/gyn tomorrow. I scheduled it months ago to go over my pelvic ultrasound scans. Now I guess I'll also be bringing up the breast screening question.

Basically, I want to know who usually schedules and follows up on yearly breast checks. And, if it's the ob/gyn as I suspect, why that can't be the case for me.

If she isn't behind the mammo/MRI combo, I'll just ask her if she'd be okay with just a mammogram after one couldn't find two, 2.5 cm. cancer lumps in her breast.

I'll keep you posted.
