Same here...big pill and fleet a couple hours before procedure. Zero issue with infection, however, the "It's not going to hurt, you'll just feel pressure" was pure crap. Two of the samples sent me to the ceiling and it felt like someone kicked me in the groin for a couple days after. I am certainly not looking forward to another one.

Wow. This is not what I expected to hear (read), especially since I am scheduled for transrectal biopsy next week. But I have learned to use intentional breathing and meditation to remain calm and anxiety-free during dental chair time (my least favorite thing of all!), so I am practicing my breathing/meditation daily!!!
