Breast Lump Eval: You might want to request a mammogram in advance of your doctors appointment. In general, it would be reasonable to have this test and follow up with your doctor within several weeks. Always best to call your doctor for best specific advice.

If possible: It is always a good idea to get this checked ASAP- at the least it would reduce your anxiety, at the most it may make a big difference on the outcome of the disease.
