Change in Needle Core Biopsy Site

Absolutely, I’ve been very open with my trainer, and also sent her the BCNA link. Definitely want to be as fit as I can heading into this sh**storm!

My breast was black and bruised for sure - maybe I shouldn’t have been so active. I have just healed up after radiation and my oncologist sternly told me ‘no jogging’. I was too sore anyway but it was so good to get started again. My advice for treatment ahead is to be as active as you can be - but also taking advice and doing as your dr tells you - whenever you can because it’s so good for mental health, which I am sure you already know. 

I’m small too :) 
good to hear you got active too :) 

I was jogging the day after my core biopsy, and shovelling wheelbarrow loads of dirt and laying turf 2 days later. No one told me I couldn’t and I didn’t think of it. I never had any discomfort but that maybe because my breast was so small.

Need them though! Saving my sanity and helping me sleep!

I was just told to rest for 24 hours afterwards. I’ll chat to the nurse Monday. Next workout isn’t til Tuesday. 

Oh some info suggests no lifting,  gym work or jogging for 2-3 weeks after a core biopsy 

This link will help as you start treatment, suggests a medical clearance before commencing exercise

Oh. The biopsy was 9 days ago. I didn’t exercise until 5 days afterwards. Haven’t had any discomfort until today. 

Do you mean a gym workout after a biopsy? Not a good idea...

Don’t think I’ve got a temp. Feeling fine. Managed a workout every day since Thursday - maybe Lumpyb**** doesn’t like that!? (I sure didn’t while I was doing them) 🤣
