In reply to Radnor Otuxne. Seems a bit low, especially given inflation and if there is more than one person completing the job. Commercial companies noawadays do 130-140 per person per hour.

Comment on Mammogram Call Back Anxiety: Stories to Relieve Your Fears by Kathleen

I’m 52 and I was called back during routine screening mammogram for the first time. They saw an asymmetry in one view only and said I needed to come back for additional mammogram and possible ultrasound. The place where I got the screening could not schedule me for the diagnostic mammogram till end of Mar, which would have been 4 months away. I was not willing to wait that long, so I called around to different breast imaging places, and I found a place that could get me in 6 weeks later, which was the earliest date I could find after calling multiple places. My follow-up mammogram was not till after Thanksgiving and Christmas, so the worry and anxiety this caused really put a dark cloud over my holiday break. The day finally came for the follow-up mammogram, and I was physically sick with anxiety. They got me in fairly quickly and they took about 4 images of my right breast only using spot compression. After the tech took the images, she said I could go back to the waiting area to wait as the radiologist read my images. She said she would come out and let me know if I needed to do more images, or any other next steps the radiologist wanted. The waiting for the radiologist in the waiting area was horrible, and I could not stop shaking. In what seemed like forever the tech finally came out and asked me to come back with her to the imaging room where i had taken the mammogram. She said the radiologist would come in and let me know what next step where. About a minute later the radiologist walked in and sat in the chair next to me and told me he could not see the asymmetry seen on the screening mammogram in the additional views they just did, so it was just normal over lapping tissue making it look like there was an increased area of density. He said I did not need an ultrasound, and I could just come back in 1 year for a screening mammogram. I was so relieved, and I just broke down and cried on the drive home. I had really believed after over a month of worrying about this that I had cancer, since my mother had died from stage 4 breast cancer.
So, if you get re called to do another mammogram, please know especially on the type of assemtry they saw in just one view a majority of time this is due to overlapping tissue and it’s really common if you have dense breasts the radiologist said for this to happen.

Paying it forward on this old post because the comments kept me sane during my 3 week waiting period.
I’m 42 and was called back after my screening for possible architectural distortion. Side note, I was called back last year for asymmetry which turned out to be a cyst. I just had my diagnostic mammogram and it turns out it was just overlapping tissue that flattened out on further compression. Non ultrasound was even needed. Yay! I did find out at the appointment that my TC score was 20.7 (high risk is anything over 20). They are recommending that I get yearly MRI’s along with mammogram and ultrasound. I am so relieved and really grateful that I am being watched so carefully. Hang in there ladies!

Great post! I’ve always wondered about beater cars and whether they’re worth considering. Your breakdown of the pros and cons was really helpful. I’m thinking about getting one as a temporary option while I save for something more reliable. Thanks for the insights!

Comment on Financial Favoritism: Giving More Money to One Child by T B

In reply to N Mulkey. Thank you. I have often dreamed of the day I can walk away from all this toxic behavior. It has felt toxic to me as I’m the responsible one. But even if I don’t need the financial bailout, for some reason it makes be feel a little less loved. Like I’m undeserving. One day I’ll walk away when I’m able.
