@gigipatula, I completely understand how you are gripped by fear. But don't let fear paralyze you. Being sure about what is in your medical records will present one of 2 situations for you:
1. The Hologic BioZorb Marker was not used and you no longer need to be fearful
or
2. Hologic BioZorb Marker was used and you should call your surgeon on Monday to discuss next steps.

Reviewing your medical records can be a daunting task. I recommend that you have someone with you. Write down your questions. Knowledge is power and can help inform your next actions. You got this.

Thank you for your wonderful and honest reply, and OK I toughened up and read most of it, nothing surprising but also no mention of what brand of breast clips were placed during my initial biopsy. However it does say in their that nothing has moved and it all looked good. So that's all good news. The initial biopsy was done by my breast surgeon who at the time was in private practice so that record is not included. I will try calling the breast surgeons office and see if they have retained any of her old records I'm sure they do. But I'm glad I read most of this and feel relieved nothing surprising was in their. I do love how they say I am a "very pleasant patient" 🙂 We should all respect health care workers, they have a tough job!
