Okay, I was wondering how many other females here have had a mamagram? What can I expect? How bad does it hurt? I've been having pain in one of my breast and quite frankly I'm worried sick. I'm only 30 years old. My grandmother died from breast cancer. I've been having the pain for quite some time but was too afraid to mention it to my doctor or my family. I finally broke down and told my father of all people. He made me set a doctors appointment to be checked out. Doctor is sending me in for a mamagram and it's tomorrow. I'm worried sick. Any words of wisdom from any one who has gone through this type of fear? I would never have gone to the doctor had my father not "ordered" me to, because if I'm dying I don't want to know it. I know that sounds silly if there is a chance something can be done, but thats just how I am.
Also, I'm worried about the pain. One of my friends told me they press your breast in betwixt glass sheets or something like that. YIKES......
