Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Hi, I have my biopsy on Thursday, two sterotactic biopsys. I don't know what all to expect. I understand there is some discomfort but what else? When will I feel comfortable enought to resume my daily activities? I live on a ranch so there are chores to do and my daughter has a show on Saturday which I would be driving to and possibly lifting things up to 35 pounds. Is it all right to do all of these things? Will I feel like doing these things or should I line up someone else to help, (I have an older daughter). Just trying to know what to expect. Thanks, Alyssa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Alyssa, I didn't have that type of biopsy but I would imagine you would be a little tender for awhile. I would definitely line someone else up to help with chores and the lifting. I will keep you in my prayers.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 If it is the same kind of biopsy I had last week it really isn't to bad. I had 4 biopsies. They told me not to lift anything heavy, no vacuuming, no laundry,etc. For the first 24-48 hours. I was sore for the first day but keeping ice on it and taking tylenol helped a lot. I bruised on the third day. I would suggest you get some help for at least the first 24 hours. Tara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 I assume you are talking about core biopsies. I had one, 2 weeks ago and it caused me no discomfort. I had a little bruising, but that was all. I did use ice a lot and think that is one of the reasons I had so little trouble. Also, it was close to the surface. It would probably be wise to have your older daughter help out, to be on the safe side.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 I am praying for you twice Alyssa. As God has said, be sure to pray for your enemies. I always pray that God will make my words sweet, because tomorrow I may have to eat them. Hope your stinking day gets better. Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Carol, No need to apologize. I totally agree with you. I applaud , your husband, my husband and all the others that take enough interest in their wives, girlfriends, finaces, sisters, mothers etc. diagnosis to want to find more out in order to support them.
