I think if I were in your position, I would feel very hesitant. Is there any way that you could get a second opinion?
If the surgeon's office doesn't respond what would happen if you were having issues after the surgery?

1 ReactionHas anyboday had the experience of Vertebra spine biopsy? I am scheduled to have one but feel fearly of pains and afterwards as well.
I just had a T10 lesion biopsied that looked benign on all test. It was benign,but I am experiencing very bad back spasms day 4. I don’t think this is the normal, but was told i would have spasms, but never expected it to this extent. I can’t take strong pain pill since they make me nauseated. I did have a pet scan and mri contrast, which also showed it looked benign, but oncologist wast still worried because it grew a bit. I did get put to sleep because Dr told be it could be painful once they get to bone area.
Surgeon said he had a hard time getting it since lesion was they were concerned and wanted to make sure since I did have breast cancer in 2024. It is a relief to know it is benign.
