Calcium Buildup in Breast
| Tue, 10-11-2005 - 4:26pm |
Hi Guys,
I have a question for you. My co-worker told us she has calcium buildup in her left breast and she has to keep a watch on it - She has to go for a 6-month Mammogram. She had a Mammogram this morning. She is a bit worried and I told her that calcium buildup is nothing and not to fret. I hope I said the right thing. I've never heard that calcium buildup is bad in breast. Please write me back. Thank you. Laura

Hi Laura,
Sorry, I'm been a bit 'under the weather' and can't be up for long.
She may have been refering meant "calcifications"
"Calcifications are very common and in most cases are harmless. Occasionally, however, they can be a sign of breast cancer."
