My wife just booked a mammogram appointment and the nurse or whoever takes the appointment asked if she had been vaccinated. Wife said no, the nurse replied that they had been having a lot of women come in with swollen lymph nodes that had been vaxed. Not much else to report but we both thought wtf - we are both clearly not getting vaccinated but found this news disturbing.

Mammograms consist of ionizing radiation delivered DIRECTLY to hormone sensitive tissue. Ionizing radiation is carcinogenic. There is NO safe dose and no way to control where that radiation goes once it has entered your body.
Medical X-rays can most definitely cause cancer. Perhaps that's a side effect to consider?
Oh no. What about all the crazy radiation sleeting through us all right nowfrom natural sources?! We're screwed!
Obviously our bodies can handle naturally occurring amounts of cosmic/environmental radiation.
But my concern is a valid one. Directing higher dose radiation at specific hormone sensitive tissue, especially if the tissue in the surrounding area has been stressed by an experimental injection seems like a recipe for cancer.
But what if the female receiving the medical radiation has been stressed by a year of draconian lockdowns, financial hardship and general tyrranical fuckery. Is it wise to radiate breast tissue in that state?
CONTEXT IS EVERYTHING.
I'm fairly certain the medical establishment does not give a shit about people's individual health differences. Has anyone considered WHY we aren't "winning the war" on breast cancer? Mammography is just one reason.
I've heard some doctors advise their patients to wait a couple months after the vax to get a mammogram, because as you say, the lymph nodes stay swollen and apparently that makes it hard for them to get get a clear image.
Yes, swollen lympf nodes is an expected side-effect. See EMA doc on emergency use of moderna vaxx in EU.
THe doc also delineates other side effects like spike protein in the brain.
They knew BEFORE they rolled it out.
Long term effects? Not known.
Thanks for the RL addition!
