Capsular Contracture and Mammogram. Any suggestions?

Asked By:susan1971 in Meigs, GA

I have pretty severe contracture of my implants, so no chance of being able to endure the implants bein squished by a mammogram. They are as hard as rocks, literally. With that said, I found a lump and went and got thermal imaging done. Suspiscious findings were found. Next step would normally be the mammo, as I am 40 next week. No chance that will happen. So what should I do/request? Is an ultrasound my only tool option now?
