Mammogram Recall - wtf

Had first mammogram a few weeks ago, now had a letter asking me to attend for further tests and ‘helpfullly’ pointing out that only 4% of folk get recalled but of them only 25% have cancer.

Feeling rather anxious now! Is this a common thing? I’m fit and healthy and only just 50 😳…. appointment isn’t for 14 days so I’m left to ponder…..

Thank you. Pretty terrified.

All clear. Doctor said it was pure bad luck that i'd been called back twice.

Wow that is unlucky to be recalled twice but so glad everything turned out ok for you. The stress of the wait is just so awful.
