LOVE this cartoon..I've have severe Fibro Cystic Breast pain..and don't want to even think about the PAIN level that the OVER POWERED automatic mamogram machine brings to me, I nearly passed out from the pain.

There is NO reason to exert that amount of pressure on VERY tender body parts. I've had mamograms with the machine they crank down by hand and it was painless. The machine which is automatic has no way of controling for amount of pressure it apply's.

Maybe if there were less pain involved more women would be repeat patients a whole lot sooner. When you cause me that much pain I tend to AVOID your procedures.

They don't call it "Smash and Flash" for nothing, do they?

The problem with this cartoon is that the guy is not grinning. Even if there were pain involved, the typical guy would be getting off on having his crank clamped.
