One of the things that kept me going when my wife spent a month at St. Marys two times was knowing that I could always take a break while she napped and go to the library. I thank you for being there

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recently revised its screening recommendations for breast cancer based upon an analysis of various mammography screening schedules. Experts suggest screening every two years for average risk women ages 50 to 74 achieves most of the benefits of annual screening, but with less harm.... Furthermore, although there was a decrease in mortality for women ages 40 to 49, screening resulted in additional mammograms and false positives, therefore is not being recommended. These findings are published in the November 17, 2009 Annals of Internal Medicine. Sandhya Pruthi, M.D., director of Mayo Clinic Breast Clinic, Rochester, Minn., responds to this news.Read More

I like to know where these new guidelines really are coming from. Don't know if I can believe doctors could even think of this when they are here to save lives. Maybe they should talk to families who have lost lost ones due to breast cancer. My sister-in-law got to see her children grow and get married. We need to get the good care we deserve.

Why do we need guidelines who is the overpaid person who can up with this crazy idea. They need to be available to whomever whenever needed. I thought a mammograph was to help prevention of this dangerous cancer?? Say NO to guidelines...

I also wonder if wrist bones were out of alignment for some time and if an adjustment of his wrist could have prevented this......?
