Which part of the body?

@Northwest The boob of course

@Fernie Sorry, had to ask. I had a non-boob biopsy. I also held someone's hand, as she went through her double breast biopsy. If you have someone who can go with you, to hold your hand, take advantage of it. It's not about the pain, it's about the comforting.

She said icing up the incision area afterward, vigilantly, really helped. Expect to be "sore" for a few days.

I wish you well my friend.

@Northwest Thanks for that! I'm told there'll be Novocaine involved. How kind of you to hold her hand! It IS about the comforting...I called rent-a-Mom so someone will be with me.
