Echocardiogram post biopsy

Diagnosed with breast cancer Recently diagnosed with breast cancer

I’ve just been diagnosed but still having tests. Just had a second lot of biopsies done today and it’s pretty sore. I’m booked in for a pre chemo echo tomorrow and I’m worried it’s gonna really hurt my biopsy wound. Any advice or experience?

Please don’t worry I had echo cardio gram couple weeks after lumpectomy. Consultant was very gentle and considerate - didn’t feel a thing,
Good luck

Its very gentle. Just like a baby ultrasound and more around sternum and side of body than over your actual breast. Youbshoukd be fine but do remind them about your recent biopsy. Hope it goes well.
