Default Punch biopsy tomorrow morning...

finely getting the next test done tomorrow, I guess I will have one or two holes in my leg... I waited 3 months for the test, it has been a long 3 months! I hope I don't oversleep!

It is really painless- but you may have three scars- I do! It was really good for me to have confirmed results even though they were pretty severe. I felt much better knowing that I wasn't crazy! ( at least not about the numbness)

Now the really hard part will be waiting for results. Good luck tomorrow!

Punch biopsy went well, pretty painless, like you said, the needle was the only pain. The only problem I had, they had changed my appointment from 9am to 11pm, and left me a message that I didn't get, so I was there 2 hours early!
I go back for results on Oct 30th, I got in early, as he felt bad for having me wait 2 hours...

Glad to hear it went well. It's a shame you had to wait so long. It seems like it was worth it since you got a quick follow up appt.
