I've had mammograms since the age of 12 thanks to fibrocystic breast. Go me! Not painful at all unless one of those little critters decides to grow a little. Ouchy. But in all seriousness, not that bad considering it does only take a few minutes of time. I am only bruised for the day. lol

May I also suggest every woman look into the new digital mammography? Ask around at your local hospitals. It's very cool and allows the tech and radiologist to see your breast on screen without waiting for films. Plus it sees in much more detail than a regular mammography. I know, they had me come back for whittle density changes.

Thanks Cin!
