It’s for my 3.9 cm mass and 4 mm nodes they found 2 days ago. I don’t know if it’s going to be painful. I am very squeamish and have needle phobia. This is my worst nightmare. Yes I don’t have a diagnosis yet but when the doctors talked to me on Monday they said they are pretty
positive is the C. I am freaking out!! Thank you for your kind words; I am trying what you are suggesting but it’s so hard!!

Hi @oliviasj. Darn. I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. My heart really goes out to you.
Of course it is scary as heck to even consider the possibility of cancer. It sounds like you’re in the waiting phase, which is so darn hard.
Bob Marley said “You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.”
It is so hard to wait and worry. Even though you might be worrying in the back of your mind, try to do some things purposefully that make you feel a little better — whatever that looks like for you. (I walked my dog a lot while waiting for several days for an initial diagnosis to be confirmed and watched shows that made me laugh.)
Keep us posted! Wishing you peace and strength while you wait.
Hi I know how you feel I had a 3.2 cm biopsy isn't that bad. They numb you first. Waiting is hard try to stay busy. One step at a time you will get to the other side. Best wishes and complete healing. ❤️

@auntieoakley is the biopsy going to be painful? What should I expect or prepare for?
