Well I was told they want a biopsy so I'm waiting for an appointment, it gets here and it's for an ultrasound .been trying to ring them no answer for anyone  so not a clue why no biopsy. And was told definitely I've been put through for a biopsy  but hey who am I to know anything

  • Hope biopsy doesn't take too long 

    Fear of the unknown is the worst thing. Once we know what we're facing, we find the strength to deal with it.

    My husband had a ultrasound led biopsy , it didn't take long but you have to lie still afterwards.  

    Often if theyre 100% sure its cancer they don't do a biopsy and just go straight to removal . Often things change after 1st appointments as the multi-disciplinary team have a look at things and may decide on a different way forward . Good luck 

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
