Achieving remission with a blood cancer with no treatment is pretty unusual but miracles can happen every day. We have to keep in mind that remission doesn’t mean cured. But when there is no sign of cancer cells it’s a win/win. ☺️

A friend recently had a thyroid biopsy. The good news is that it was quick and painless. She said the doctor uses ultrasound to guide a super fine needle to the intended site. It’s much smaller than what’s used for blood draws. She had local anesthesia and only felt a little pressure when the ultrasound wand. Easy peasy and then she was done…
Wishing you the best of news and an easy time with your biopsy. ☺️

My dr. told me I am not LGl cured but for now I am doing well. I must be watched with appointments and blood work. He was happier than me at that time, When I left it sank in and I was so happy. I was so afraid to take the meds and hope I never get there.
Thank for the info on the nodule biopsy but sure does not sound easy peasy to me, lol.

It's been a few years but I've had a thyroid biopsy it's easy peasy. If you can do all the philbotomies you got the thyroid biopsy. They totally numb the area and you only feel pressure not pain.
I was glad to read good news.
