Mammogram During Pregnancy??? Posted: 01-04-04 18:26pm
My doctor scheduled a mammogram for me
because of a lump I had found in my
breast. She was not alarmed by it, but
because I was and I thought it was
different, she made the appt. For the
mammogram. The appointment is next week.
But in the meantime, I found out I am
five weeks pregnant. Do you know if it
is ok for me to have a mammogram while I
am pregnant?

I am not sure, I would go ahead and give
the doctor a phone call and let her know
that you are expecting!
Congratulations!!

Thank you so much for your thoughts and
advice. I really appreciate it. Good
point about finding the lump because I was
pregnant. I hadn't thought of that. I
was planning on calling tomorrow - so
we'll see what they say. Thanks again!
