Mammograms Can Have Negative Long-Term Results

Posted on 12:00 by Unknown
I'd written earlier about the possibility being raised that having a mammogram actually doesn't up your chances of surviving breast cancer when compared with women (like me) who skip them.

Now here's an article on how false-positive mammograms can actually have Negative Long-Term Results.

I'll also note that the new standard of care is now very up in the air about whether mammograms should be recommended for women 40-50 AT ALL. Ask your doc.
