Hi Ladies
As most of you know I have done the chemo, radio and herceptin and have to go for yet another biopsy.
Gee where is my head? My visit to the surgeon is tomorrow at ten to four EST, not t...
Is it a fine needle biopsy? If it's that then you won't need any preparation fluids. I had that the first time - my surgeon just jabbed me a few times with a very fine needle into the sus area to withdraw some blood.It was similar to having blood taken. Now if you are having a core biopsy,it's a MUCH bigger needle -it feels like being hit with a nail gun.However,my doc was terrific and it wasn't too bad at all - think I had abit of local beforehand.Ring and find out which one Josie cos if it's the core one then definitely some panadol or grog before AND after!
luv Tonya xx p.s will email soon.
