Congratulations, Cin!

You are right: every woman age 40+ should get one.

I've had a few. Most were pain-free. Sometimes it can depend on your monthly cycle on how tender you are, so take that into consideration.

Also, I've heard it helps to cut down on caffeine intake prior to getting your mammogram to minimize pain.
