Re: bleeding druing a mammogram/

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I have had 5-6 mammos (many multiple pics) and never bled but........

After a suspicious mammo, and follow-up, they scheduled me for a " wire-

localization biopsy " . This consisted of 1 1/2 hours in the mammo

machine while they tried to isolate the biopsy area with hollow

needles. I almost passed out twice and was told by the techs NOT TO

LOOK DOWN. I did.

I can't actually say it was blood but there was something coming from

my nipple. When I questioned the techs, they told me it wasn't anything

and not to worry. BUT, I also heard one of them mentioning fluid

(that's when I looked down) and they all seemed concerned and a bit

perplexed.

Anyways....That was over a year ago, and I am doing just fine. I

wouldn't worry about it too much, girlfriend. You will get through all

of this just fine! Keep the faith!!

peace...................kimmy
