After effects of Biopsy?

Hi dedward67 , we are all different in how we respond to treatments and there are two methods of biopsy.  My biopsy was very uncomfortable and I had bleeding afterwards for a few hours.  The rest of the day, I was slightly like a wounded animal and didn’t want to do much.  Next day, pretty much back to normal and no problem sitting.  Hope this helps, David

Hello dedward67 

I agree with David2017  here. Mine was over 3 years ago and the old TRUS biopsy. I had no bleeding but was a trifle sore for a few hours afterwards.

Here's our guide to The Trans-perineal Biopsy. I wish you well with it.

Best wishes - Brian.

Mine was...well uncomfortable to say the least.  I think the worst part was being in stirrups.  So embarrassing but it had to be done.

I could only see the top of the head of the Nurse performing the biopsies.  I thought I would never see her again...

Wrong!  At my next appointment she was there and asked me if I recognised her.  It's a wonder she recognised me!!

I think she was a darts player, a few treble 20's, ending up with a couple of Bullseye's.

It will be fine for you.  It's the waiting that gets your mind going.  But once it begins, not so bad.

Be careful, driving!!!

Hi,

I was in agony after my biopsy............but the pain was not caused by the biopsy but by the removal of the dressing they had applied. Admittedly, the area to be dressed was not the easiest to do, but I think they went a bit overboard with the sticky tape. The tape was stuck to every hair on my body from my navel to my knees !!!! 

The biopsy "wounds" were just a little bit tender - not even enough to call them painful. 

I forgot about the sticky tape!

Oh well!!! You get a free "Brazilian".  Didn't know if it was best to take the tape off carefully or rip it off.  But then, it wasn't my decision, just the nurse with a wry smile on her face (only joking, it was professionally done).
