Cancer survivor SHERYL CROW is calling on all to demand better medical attention if doctors tell them they'll merely keep an eye on breast calcification.
The rocker insists too many at-risk women are told to go home and return for a check up in six months after doctors notice the first signs of breast cancer during mammogram.
The STEVE McQUEEN hitmaker admits she was told not to panic and is living proof that sometimes you have to challenge your doctor.
She says, "If, after a routine mammogram, the person who is examining you says, 'There's some calcification in your breasts, we'll keep our eye on it; come back in six months' - don't. Schedule a needle biopsy now.
"If I had waited six months to do the biopsy, who knows where I'd be today."
