Always had mammograms

Having mammograms every year and not having a family history of breast cancer had me convinced I was safe. When I was diagnosed with stage two breast cancer in August of 2012 I was floored. After a lumpectomy chemo and radiation I am now on the road to recovery. I've never heard a woman say they enjoyed having a mammo, but I've told many friends it's better to have one mammo a year than it is going through a year of Hell. I can't stress enough how important it is. It probably saved my life. An ounce of protection is worth a pound of cure.
