Hello everyone. 

I have my yearly mammogram and MRI scan in 2 weeks time. This will be one year from my diagnostic scans. I have finished chemo and now awaiting radiotherapy. 

The letter says breast with contrast both. Is that a scan on both breasts? And blue dye injected into both breasts to show up cancerous cells? 

Does anyone know if it would be ok to wear my wig in the scan? It has some small metal hooks on it. I can’t bear not to wear it. 

With regards to the mammogram, I think I remember my bcn saying it would be mammogram on the other breast and a physical on the removed breast and you don’t get results straightaway. Is that what anyone else has had?
