Like a lot of the women in the clip I had never heard of it......

I'd never heard of it either. Shocking.

Wow!, I'd never heard of it either, thanks for the link.



P.s When I went for a check up a couple of weeks ago, the OB/GYN doctor told me that they are now recommending mammograms from age 35 instead of waiting until age 40, new one on me!

I was told this too a few years ago but the doctor also mentioned that not all insurance companies will pay for it, especially if there is no history of breast cancer in the family.

and no, I'd never heard of this type of BC before either so thanks for sharing

Thanks for the link.
I can't hear it at the moment as I am at work and my sound is blocked off.
Will listen at home later, scares the crap out of me thinking about it.

I never had a Mammography and I am 42 in September, so many women seem to have a scare when they have a Mamo ( they more often then not seem to find something be it benign or not? I know it's better to catch it in time but it still scares the hell out of me to have the test, especially as I have had no kids and that makes my risk higher :scared:
