Hi Folks,

Can anybody point me to the most recent information regarding having
a mammogram while nursing?  I've searched the archives, and from that
I've gotten the sense that a) in terms of diagnosis a mammogram
while nursing can still be useful, and is better than no mammogram, and
b) that whether or not it is safe to nurse your child immediately following
a mammogram, or whether, instead, you should pump and dump, is open
to debate.  All of this was gleaned from information which is about a year
old, though - is there anything more definitive out there now?

Thanks!
