Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in Pennsylvania

Cancer

I was diagnosed with Cancer on June 15, 2006 that day I received a letter from the clinic that I needed to go for a biopsy. The following saturday I received a letter saying that my mammo showed a lump and have it checked in a year. This is on my mind constantly and I am quite upset about it is there anything I can do?

Re: Cancer

Current standards of medical practice require that dominant masses be biopsied. If you have a lumb the possibility of cancer is not ruled out by a mammogram. On what basis was the diagnosis of cancer based?? Please discuss this matter further with your PCP.
