mammograms - worse than the credit squeeze!

Oh the joys of womanhood! I had to go for my breast screening mammogram today. I should be used to it by now, it's my third one plus an extra last time when they found an anomaly and I had to go to the hospital for further boob squashing.

For those of you yet to enjoy such delights, imagine catching your boobs, one at a time in a printing press, then because you enjoyed it so much, you shut them in the door - one at a time again.

I'm not complaining, breast cancer is always a risk, especially as I've taken oestrogen for thirty years on and off, and I suspect it would hurt even more than the mammogram. Hopefully, they won't find any more anomalies and I can be spared the discomfort for another three years.
