Was awake the whole time, had the local, I just didn't look at the 'needle' thing...I HATE NEEDLES and get faint at the sight.

It's like going to any doc appointment or test: go, wait; go to a room, wait; get 'prepped', wait; well, we ALL know that drill. The actual biopsy part took all of maybe 2 minutes of keeping still? Sure is lots easier than other tests I can think of! Just a teeny bit sore for about a day but no biggie.

Comparing it to PN pain? It's short term, goes away fast and doesn't haunt you the way PN pain does. Comparatively, it's an easy one. At least, that was my experience on it.

Sure hope this helps! Think of it as part of your 'QUEST' to get ANSWERS!

Good thoughts for sure - j
