My mum (67) had her 3 yearly mammo last week and got a call yesterday saying that she had to go back for another mammo as the image wasn't clear on the xray. The same thing happened to her the last time she had a mammogram and eventually she got the all clear. This time she specifically asked the radiographer whether the image was OK as she wanted to avoid this and she was told it's fine. However, she's now had a recall and has been given the same excuse again. AIBU in thinking that they are just saying this because they have seen something worrying and it's just a standard excuse to stop women panicking?? She is going at 4.30 today....she's been told "it's nothing to worrry about at the moment, just a fuzzy image which needs to be re-done"......sounds fishy to me.... so AIBU or am I right to be sceptical and hence rather concerned?
