Repeat Mammo and US in other breast

Has anyone ever been diagnosed with BC in their other breast? I got caught off guard when the hospital called me back saying they need more pictures from my mammo last week. My non breast cancer is always easier to do although I did have a biopsy for calcifications in it about 5 years ago. Just feeling a bit off especially as we lost an aunt earlier this summer to BC.

Callbacks for more pictures is common! They tend to be more thorough since we've had cancer already. I wouldn't worry too much yet. But yes, recurrences and new cancers are pretty common too. Hopefully this will turn out to be nothing!
