Hi Cosmopolitan,

Sorry to hear of this.  I had breast cancer in 2012 with lumpectomy, chemo, radiotherapy and then tamoxifen/tetrazole.  Last year I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer with mets in pelvis, spine , ribs skull etc.  I had a CT guided bone biopsy of the mets in pelvis.  I can't say it was a very pleasant experience. They went in through the bottom of my back (more my bum area) The doctor said it wouldn't hurt.  Truth is it did but then I told him and he gave me more local anesthetic.  It was okay after the last anesthetic.  You have to go to the ward afterwards and lie still for four hours.   It is doable just tell them if you need more anesthetic  Good luck for Monday, you have got this x.  Here if you wish to chat.

Hi Lee thanks for responding and sorry you have had to go through this too. The info is useful and thanks for sharing.   They are doing mine on the spine where the tumour is which is scary.   Can’t imagine lying still for 4 hours as that is not me I am like a jumping Jack!!   Best wishes 

Hi Cosmopolitan,

Please ignore my last reply. I misread bone scan for bone biopsy.

I hope that your biopsy goes well.

Please keep us posted.

Kind regards,
