Q: 

I just had results of my breast ultra sound and I have swollen lymph nodes in both breasts.The radiologist wants to do a retake in one year but my family Dr is sending me for another ultra sound in 6 months. Should I be asking for any other tests?

Hello Kate,

Welcome to EmpowHER.

Have you had a recent mammogram? i would think an ultrasound of the breasts and a mammogram are all the diagnostic testing that can be done.

Keep us updated,
Maryann
