boiopsy prayer

[DIANE W]

Joyce

Please try to stop worrying - i know it easier said than done, i went through similar feelings myself, but put on a very brave face to my family, because i knew if they knew i was worried they would be much worse.

I have never heard of that method of biopsy personally, mine was very painless, and quick, i honestly didnt feel anything, i just sat up in a chair.

I think your mind is playing you up a bit and it is worse because you are having to wait what seems like forever.

You will be ok, make some notes on questions you want to ask, dont feel silly, as you may forget to ask at the time.

Take care - lots of hugs coming accross the world to you.

Joyce I'm so sorry you're stressing so much over this, but it is normal. All of us would stress if we were in the same situation and many of us have.

Have you called where you are having the biopsy done to see if you can get in on a cancellation? That way you wouldn't have to keep waiting. I personally would want it done and overwith as soon as possible.

You're in our prayers Joyce.

I went to my consultation and I am having a core needle biopsy on jan 11. Has anyone had one of these and how painful is it?

[Janet]

If this is where the Dr. sticks a needle in to draw fluid, then for me....it didn't hurt at all. Wish they didn't make you wait till the 11th, that's just too long to worry. We all said you shouldn't, but we would all be worried too, we're human. Will keep you in my prayers.

It sounds like the doctor is taking care to check everything out. I'll be praying. Keep us posted on how you're doing. Hugs!!!

Hi
If it is what i also had when i first saw my consultant, a needle was used to draw out some fluid, this was then examined both in the consulting room with a microscope and sent to the lab.

I agree with Janet it was painless for me too......

Keep positive - all will be well.

I went to the consultation, I go for a core needle biopsy on Jan. 11. I am so stressed over this.
My Dad and his wife surprised me for christmas and Flew my daughter and Grandson and their lil yorkie to visit me. It was such a beautiful sight to see my daughter standing in the doorway.
my son who lives in CT stopped by bc he knew she was coming, Then at the same time my other son who lives in Jacksonville called me to distract me so that I wouldn't hear the car door shut.
I am on the phone and My Son Fred opens the door and in walks my daughter I just stood there in shock. Then I hugged her and let it all out. I think I just needed her arms around me bc we are very close and she understands me. I hugged her so tight and then I look down and see my 2 year old Grandson looking up at me. I was so touched that my Dad did this for me, he even gave my son in law enough money to drive home for 4 days bc he had to work, he is in the military and they gave him a 4 day pass. So he drove up to be here as well.
I felt truly blessed and it was just what I needed.

How sweet!!! You must have a very special Dad for him to realize that you needed your family around you at this time!!! I'm so glad that you got to spend some time with your kids. Hopefully being with them will help to reduce your stress level.

[DIANE W]

Oh that was so nice of your Dad and his partner to do that for you all.

I bet they enjoyed being with you just as much as you enjoyed them!!!!!

Another bonus is it has distracted you from worrying for a while too.

Not long now and then you can ask questions and be reassured too.

A lovely story........
