I may have been lucky with my biopsy at Mayo but the hype and resulting anxiety were much worse than the procedure. Dentist versus Biopsy about equivalent.

@dhasper
I am a dentist and I’ve had root canals , crowns , extractions and implants I also had a trans rectal biopsy with only local and a trans perineal with sedation .
I’ll take dental work any day vs trans rectal with only local anesthesia. Yes I survived but not comfortable at all. !!
