    MG, just want to thank you for all your help on this.

    My GP gave me some diazepam to get me through and I had half a tablet that morning and the other half of the tablet in the waiting room when I started to feel the freak out coming on. If anything, some of the local anaesthetic injections were more painful than the biopsy itself... But afterwards, when they stuck the dressing on and rolled me over on to my side... There are no words for that pain! I'd give birth again ten times over without gas rather than go through that again!

    Felt a bit better when they let me sit up and spent the rest of the day not moving... the day afterwards with Sam was pretty difficult - but he knew Daddy hadn't gone to work the day before and something different happened and he didn't understand and felt all left out.

    Still have moments of pain - most recently triggered by Sam driving his elbow into my chest while climbing around on me and that's triggered the right shoulder pain again... I recover slowly, I'm used to that.

    Results on Tuesday - nervous as all hell!

    BW I am glad you managed to get through it ok, despite the pain afterwards. Hope the results arrive swiftly and it's all good news
