I have recently had a core biopsy which I felt like I was completely unprepared for how painful and sore it was after recovery. It was an extremely quick procedure and sent home with a small leaflet about what I had done and how to care for the incision site. (This would have been more useful with the appointment letter) I am taking paracetamol but it is so sore it is making me feel so miserable. I went to the appointment on my own and drove home myself, and perhaps have been overdoing it at home with some chores. 
 

 I know that are many lovely ladies on this forum suffering much worse than me and I feel so very selfish to post, but can anyone help with how to get through the pain? I am not overly worried about the results however I am not sure how long the wait will be. The consultant found a small lump which they said needed testing to be 100% sure it was okay. Makes sense however if I knew it hurt this bad I would have requested to monitor it with further imaging.
