Hi all,

Wanted to throw in my 2 cents. I was 38 at time of

surgery (turned 39 a month later) and did not have to

have a mammogram. Last one for me was May 1999.

a,

Unless something has changed you must have one. I

haven't read anything that refers to a certain age or

anything.

Hi a: Your message went through and you had several replies. You only need

a mammogram if your PCP says you need one. Dr. R wants a pap and a mammo, if

needed. I was 57 when I had my surgery so I knew that I would need one..and I

was a few months overdue anyway. Check the manual...I'm pretty sure it it

worded...if needed...and I don't think you will need one.

Amy,

I was (at 53yrs. old) suggesting that I might be confused!!! LOL not you,

Sweetie (at 25)..

My buddy Jude already reminded me what an old lady I am.. and that's why I

needed the mamogram.
