Yes. I had a mammogram at 51 and three days later developed mastitis. Doctor confirmed it was from the compression. I had a high fever, severe headache and rash. Within 24 hours of taking antibiotics it cleared up a lot, but it took another couple of months of antibiotics to go completely away.

What could the hard bump that does not hurt and does not move under the arm of a 28 year old be?

There could be a number of things that would cause this, but the fact that it is not painful and is fixed is some cause for alarm, since cancerous lumps are not usually painful and are fixed (they don't move around). But there are many benign things that could cause this, as well, such as a clogged lymph node, an infection in a lymph gland, a calcification, etc., so there is no cause for panic. I do recommend though, that you have a doctor look at it soon.


Does blue cross pay for a mammogram?

Yes, they will cover annual mammograms if they are suitable to age. Currently, under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act Annual Checkups and certain preventive services are covered without charge. Various carriers may designate a different age as the year in which Mammograms are offered as Preventive service. IF the mammogram is DIAGNOSTIC due to finding a lump for example, the mammogram is more likely to be treated as a diagnostic lab test. A great deal depends on how the doctor codes the test.
