Be aware that your surgeon will probably not be present for the biopsy. It's all handled by a radiologist and a tech or two.
If you're at all anxious about the procedure, get your surgeon to prescribe you a trank to take before you go in. All I could get out of mine was a .25 mg Xanax, which was enough to keep me from chewing my b00b off to get out of the machine, but ONLY enough for that.
They let me bring wear my iPod and I was really, really, really glad I had it - both for the calming effect of the playlist I'd picked, and just to drown out the radiologist and the techs talking.
Don't leave without making sure they give you good pain meds. It might be best to get the scrip from your surgeon ahead of time. You'll be long gone before the local wears off, and do NOT let them send you out of there with the advice to just take ibuprofen.
You should be fine to bicycle over smooth roads within two to three days, and run (if you run) within a week or less. What will take more time is anything that uses much arm movement. This is much longer than what my surgeon told me (and I have a pretty high pain threshold).
Take good care. I'll be thinking about you, and sending good vibes that everything's okay. (As you know, statistically most of them are benign.)
{{{{Jones}}}}} Sending you positive energy.
see my post about venting frustration over a lost month and my post tonight about the finale. Just to give you another point of view.
Personally I love my post menopausal, post baby, squishy fried eggs sliding toward my belly button.
Hope the news is everything clear.

I have always been fortunate and never called back but I can so understand how nervous it must make anybody feel.
Wishing you well with your results.
Wonder why the Poll was closed?

When a poll is set up, you can set a time for it to close, I assume that's what Jones did. :cool:Quote:

I just called my Dr.s and got the all clear. Thank you all for your support, it has been extremely helpful to me. This entire process is so scary, they move you from one test to the next so fast it rattles you. I'm used to the Dr. telling you to get a test and then waiting weeks for an opening not days or hours. I know they do it to reduce anxiety but when your not used to it it creates anxiety.
I am thrilled with the result, my mind is now at ease and I just want to thank you all again for being there for me.
Jones:)
