That’s unacceptable and infuriating. I started going to my wife’s appointments because of shit like this. I don’t know if it’s because my wife wasn’t advocating enough for herself or if the doctor was shitty but all I do is sit there and repeat my wife’s concerns in different words when I think I need to. She’s getting the results she deserves now.
This is coming from a good place and I don’t mean any disrespect but it sounds like your wife needs a mammogram. Do something about it.
I wish.
My wife has so far had 3 aunts and 1 cousin, all on her mother’s side, with different forms of breast cancer.
But yet, her PCP doesn’t want her having a mammogram until 40.
Her cousin was 36.
