Hi Anonymous,
Good for you for being so on top of things with your mammogram, advocating for yourself here, and making an appointment. Thank you for your question. Many different conditions can cause breast soreness and tenderness, etc. To calm your fears, most breast conditions are not cancer, but it is good you are getting it checked out just in case. Here are some reasons you may be experiencing these symptoms:
