Having core biopsy soon, bery nervous x
The waiting and fear of the unknown is horrible, I know. I found core biopsies quite okay (i had two lumps so had several done at the same time) and the local anaesthetic stopped any pain. The click of the needle taking the sample is loud but the radiologist will demonstrate it to you before she begins. I had a bit of brusing and soreness for a few days after but I found arnica gel from Boots very soothing. All the staff were very kind and gentle and it was not at all scary in any way. I wish you lots of luck with biopsy and results.

Just be aware that if its your right side you may want someone to drive you because of seat belt. I didn’t consider this. But was left side so drove self. Dressings were bigger than expected so may want to take a scarf to cover up.
