I'll be thinking about you today Ms Spock. I hope you're okay :hug: and manage to get some rest later on.

Well it was pretty painful. I needed to speak up about that.

But I turned up. I waited for 20 minutes for the doctor to come in, during which the anxiety was so high I almost fell asleep. Next time I need to speak up about the pain but all in all I did okay and got through the procedure. They were kind and reassured me that I was doing well. They took three samples of the same lesion (I think that is what they are called.)

I was a bit concerned when they said the report said the lesion was 2mm down but they thought is was further down than the report said. Then I decided to trust they knew what they were doing.

I did space out a bit at times but I was okay I think.

The doctor was supervising another doctor and I was concerned that she was learning on me. But I didn't say anything. They kept discussing were they happy with the entry point and how to get it to stay still so they could get a sample. Apparently it kept moving.

Afterwards I waited in the waiting room so they could see I had no adverse reactions. I left and went to a cafe where I had a vanilla milkshake and a sandwich and just sat for 40 minutes reading about dementia - looking for information to help B with his Dad.

80% Chance it is benign but it was stressful. I did okay.

Came to the library, had a 20 minute nap and then did some research on Mindfulness Meditation, I have almost finished reading the book. Got two PTSD books as well.

Thanks for the good wishes. They are most appreciated.

I'm glad you got through that Ms Spock. 80% is a high figure as well. Still thinking about you and will be in chat for the next while if you want to chat.

All the best, Ms Spock.:hug:

Did they tell you how long it will be for the results? You did amazing. I would most definitely had gone home and crashed after that. What keeps us from speaking up? Hopefully there will not be a next time. I am hoping that this is benign. You are in my thoughts and my heart. I have a hand for you to hold if need be.
