Hi Barb. I had a mammogram 2 years ago that indicated swollen lymph glands in my arm pit. I had a biopsy . It was malignant. Then I went to an oncologist and had diagnosis of follicular lymphoma, Three pet scans since then show that I have swollen lymph glands everywhere , but not large enough for treatment. If I go for another mammogram the same results will appear and it may be painful.
