Well I survived!! and boy do they squish the boobies I will say not the worst thing I have done but annual is ok by me. I cant believe how much of my breast they fit in(enough to see my pectoral muscle)Thank you all VERY much. You all made it a lot easier

Glad to hear it went well, Mary!

YAY!! Good for you for getting it done, don't forget to keep getting it done! And self-exam every month..

When I had my first one done in FL, the lady was so nice. She said it's NOT supposed to hurt and if it does, they are doing it incorrectly. While it is uncomfortable, it's for a short period of time.

I still think that if that's the way they checked testicles for men, we'd have a much better machine in place

ITA!
Heck, the scans would be more like an ultrasound.
