Sorry you had to go through all of that. Your results will be worth it though, one way or the other. But, that sure is some mashed taters there. Wow.

I surely wish you good news with your results and am just sorry for all you've had to go through to date.
As for the better way... FYI: MRI breast biopsy. Maybe they just didn't have that where she went, though. No radiation with MRI. Or, maybe she has a medical reason why she can't go into the big magnet... When they have that much of an issue, MRI is the way to go if they can.
