Biopsy

Glad it came back negative. The interaction with the Nurse could be worse. When my wife went into the Maternity clinic with our second child who was nearly 3 weeks overdue she was told by the nurse that she had had the baby. When my Mrs pointed out the very large lump indicating thet she was, indeed, still very pregnant, the Nurse argued back pointing out where it said on the computer that she had been delivered of a child. 

Once its in the computer its true!

Stupid.  When I was in school to become a Respiratory Therapist years back, I had a very wise man as one of my professors.  He told us over & over, LOOK at your patient when you're assessing them.  For instance the monitor might be reading that the patient has flatlined....do you really want to run in the room, call a code & start compressions when the patient is lying in bed reading and an electrode just happen to fall off?  That always stuck with me.  AFTER I had my third child the nurse came in and asked, "when are you planning to deliver this child anyway?"  Quite the opposite of your wife, but I had delivered my daughter about 4 hours previous to that question and it didn't help with the baby blues AT all.  lol  How rude.  Funny thing is, I was always back into my pre-pregnancy clothes within a week after delivery....not quick enough for her likings I guess.
