Philippa, I can't tell you what you should do. Really if I don't want to be in trouble I should say go for the mammograms as that way you may find a possible cancer sooner esp if adding in HRT.
I was only adding in my tuppence worth for myself only:) I've given up on most docs..just agreeing with u there:) I'm sure there are good ones out there, and like I said the surgeons.. like if I was i a traffic accident or had a limb blown off in a war or had cancer or a tumour in the brain, or a heart attack...all those docs seem to be mostly terrific! That is what medicine excels at IMHO only.
I'm sure you'd go for docs in those cases as well if you think about it! Some people don't though..some stay right away from all docs due to their religion, beliefs etc gee I had a 2nd cousin who is 89? (I think) who has never been to a doc in her life or taken any tablet either! But her sister who is 85 takes a handful of tablets a day. The younger sister was always weaker and the older sister has been athletic and fit just moved in from running a farm singlehandedly for many years after her husband died. Gee I couldnt undo a jar so she said give it here and just one twist...sigh. She also had got up early to bake cakes and scones and regaled us with stories and went thru the photo albums.. way fitter them me.
I've just known many folk lately who've been made worse by docs, mostly just prescibing large doses of every possible med for a suspected condition and not monitoring adequately, or looking at interactions (the more the more principle), I just avoid them wherever possible...hence no diagnosis of course. But once you are on thryoid meds etc you HAVE to go occasionally for the scrips..I just dont get any tests. Its only me, given up.. not something I could advise for anyone to do.
I was made worse by going thru pdrug after pdrug for over 10 years myself.
My fav. doc moved o'seas a couple of years ago and I really havent found another since. My other one fell off a ladder and no longer practises as a GP.
However I guess that is wrong as I DO have a couple of GP's that treat me for accupuncture who I think are really great at accupuncture..its just the meds, the ones that should involve some understanding more than the docs have I think that I dont really trust anymore.
Re mammograms- They just hurt me, so I've giving up on those and noone in my family has ever had breast cancer so I figure I'm low risk, at least as low as most men. My family tends to get ovarian cancer which they dont run routine tests for? The mammogram tests were designed for the average risk female, I may be wrong but I think I'm below that. Like I said those thermogram test by Mercola.com look good and less painful though, and perhaps more accurate(I think he says so). Have a look on mercola.com and eneter thermogram?
