I agree with Linda that waiting 6 months is a bit scarey. Did they do a Sonogram? Sometimes they can tell by the shape if it is to be worried about and a Sonogram may help ...without the biopsy. If you are ER+ you should be on Tamoxifen at least I would think. Good luck. Keep us informed. Jamie0

Hello,
You may want to contact the American Cancer Society's National Cancer Information Center. Cancer Information Specialists are available 24 hours a day and can assist you with questions regarding mammograms after cancer treatment. They can be reached at 1-800-227-2345 or by clicking on the "Contact ACS" link at the top of the page.

I wish you the best and hope that this proves to be a false alarm.
Take care and be well,
