Agreed.

I had a baseline done at, I think, 40. But I should be going back. I read an article recently that there really aren't compelling reasons to get or not to get mammograms before 50. However, that's just odds, right? If you're the one with cancer, you don't care about compelling reasons. Especially with the family history.

My mom is with us today because she worked at the hospital, and it was so easy for her to get her mammograms, and they caught it so early. This was over 10 years ago.
