Normal to within normal mammogram for female?

Question

Ok on the beginning of this month I had gotten a yearly mammogram especially because I had a lump under my left arm. So now I have received 3 letters saying different things the first letter read normal and and the second read within Normal limits which kind of made me scared. And on today I gotten another letter saying again within normal limits, so now I’m scared again. I have called my doctor but he haven’t returned my call yet. Have anyone ever had this to happen to them

What do you think "within normal limits" might mean that would be bad?

It's like saying "Your blood pressure is within normal limits" meaning it is neither too high or too low.  It's a *good* result.

Above is correct--within normal and normal are the same====its normal. No need to be scared.

Within normal limits and normal are the same thing.  Maybe the place where you had the mammogram done has your name under several different spellings, this has happened to me.  That would be a reason why you've gotten several copies of the mammogram.  However, since you have questions, call the office and ask them why they are sending so many copies.  Your doctor most likely has no idea about this problem.  Unless you had multiple mammograms on the same date, I would assume its a clerical error which happens more often than not.
