Answers:
After having watched 2 close family members go thru breast cancer, I'd really hope you are not joking. ANYONE with any concerns about it should have their doctor examine them and order a mammogram on them. If the doc says he doesn't feel you really need one and your gut feeling tells you you do and you are still worried, have him order it anyway. Remember, he works for you, which means he is your employee. Sometimes you have to be your own assertive advocate. And they are your breasts. If you don't have a regular doctor call your county health dept., and look in the yellow pages for a Community Healthcare Clinic. These are sliding fee clinics. Or call the American Cancer Society. They often offer free or low cost mammograms. Good luck.

old wives tale wash the shirt.
