Abnormal mammo
help - my doctor wants me to have a biopsy because of microcalcifications on my mammogram. I am VERY reluctant to do this and wishing I'd never had the mammo in the first place. From the reading I've done (and believe me I've done a LOT), it really seems like the odds of benefiting from diagnosing and treating DCIS are minimal, especially in comparison to the risks and harms of treatment.
I want to get a second opinion before I agree to the biopsy but I have no idea where to turn. Anybody have a line on somebody within a reasonable radius of Columbus, Ohio (Indianapolis, Cinti/Northern KY, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, etc.) who favors a conservative approach?
