Here is a site that gives statistics on age and incidence of breast cancer - Imaginis The Breast Cancer Resource.  Find where it says breast cancer topics, then general info, and then breast cancer statistics.  Bring that with you on your next doctors visit for when someone tells you you're too young.  You're in pain so something is wrong and they need to do their job and help you, not discourage you.  I am not a mammographer but I am an X-Ray tech.  The tech that examined you had no right to talk to you that way.  She is not a doctor and techs typically do not know everything that is going on with their patients (can't speak for mammographers but x-ray techs do not get indepth medical historys because our job is take the pics, not diagnose the patient).  Keep on trying until you get an answer and next time someone tells you that you are too young, whip out those statistics.
