    YES. For a week I thought I was pregnant.

    Yes. I had to go back for a mammogram.

    Once I was injured at work and had to go to hospital for stitches.  They forgot to do the drug test before they gave me pain killers.  I had to bring in the prescription to HR. So technically the test was accurate.

    A few times they've called me back after a mammo for an ultra sound.  Not sure what they see but the ultra sound always shows it's all OK.

    Yes. They first did the mammogram again from different angles and then did the ultrasound. They told me they were seeing a lymph nod where they normally are not...but it is not a danger. This post was edited by my2cents at December 11, 2021 8:03 AM MST

    Very.  Once it was six months into marriage and because of some female issues he (Doc) wanted to rule out pregnancy and the test was positive.  My knees gave way when he called and told me.  He calmed me by saying he wanted to do another.  It was negative THANK GOD!  I had been married seven years when I got pregnant with first child, and I was using birth control.  It was a big shock.

    No, that has never happened to me, thankfully.
