Well wasn't that fun! I now have three 15 cm deep stab wounds in my left kidney area. The moral of the story"Never turn your back on a doctor,they are a dangerous species".
My kidneys are deep and the biopsy is done under local anaesthetic. I don't feel much pain but THAT HURT. And he may have to re-do them . He got one good biopsy one partial and a clear miss. I'm not sure why but the bioposies have to be sent 1200 miles interstate to be evaluated so I will not know anything for two weeks.....sssiiiigggghhhh.
Thank you all for your kindness and support,I will let you know what happens. Ron.

    I had a biopsy on the lining of my liver in '05. Kind of like sticking an ice pick in your abdomen. I had to stay overnight in the hospital just in case any bleeding started. I got good results and I hope and pray that you do too.

    OK, since we are trading needle stories: 5 biopsies of my thyroid, all under local; it's not much better keeping an eye on that large needle going in, nor feeling the pressure on your throat; aaccckkk.
    My biopsies were benign, the disease treatable; here's hoping the same for you.
    All the best, keep us posted. Judy

    I haven't been around much lately, so I missed your first post, dearheart.

    I am sending my biggest hugs, and my best prayers that all will be well, and it is something treatable.

    I sit here while worrying myself about 2 'bumps' in my anal area...sigh...hopefully nothing much to worry about...I really DON'T want to battle the beast a third time, if I can avoid it...so I can feel your pain!

    Here's to both of us putting all of this 'behind' us...lol...

    Hugs, Kathi

    Ron, sorry about the attack on your back! What we survivors endure for the sake of medical practice! Keep moving forward each day,even while you wait for the results from this test! By living each day you ARE doing your version of the naked happy dance! My thoughts are with you.

    Dear Ron: Yeouch!! Thinking of you now, as you wait for the results. It's a very particular kind of torture, isn't it? I still have all those fingers and toes crossed.....
