Went for my annual mammogram today. Honestly, with medical technology being what it is, you would think there would be an easier way to accomplish this by now! Anyway...
I had a miserable experience at Windsong Radiology last time I went there, and swore I would never return. So this year, I asked my ob/gyn if I had a choice where to go. She said, "Sure! Go wherever you want!" So I called Kenmore Mercy Hospital.
They were wonderful! Friendly, kind, efficient, and as gentle as possible. It was over with quickly, hardly any wait time, and for the first time in a long time, I came away with no bruising!
After, I treated myself to a Venti Non-Fat Chai at Starbucks. (It's a spiced tea that tastes like Christmas. Great stuff!) After all, even a good mammogram is still a mammogram.
Ladies, it's important. If you're over 40, get it done. Yes, it's uncomfortable. But if it saves your life, what's a little discomfort?
