Re: How did it go today, Ellie? Thinking of you!
Hello everyone
I am so touched by your thoughts and good wishes and so grateful to have your support.
I had the procedure done yesterday by a specialist nurse at the hospital who had inserted my central line last year following my recurrence.The sample was taken from my right iliac crest. Whilst it was not pleasant it was bearable, being over in a matter of minutes. I opted for local analgesia and gas and air which I hadn't had since being in labour twenty years ago and this certainly helped!
I will have to wait two weeks till the results are ready and I am praying that they are low due to some other reason not cancer in any form!
They have also took a sample for cytogenetics which I understand will be used for research to try to help with identifying faulty or altered genes in bc.
Lots of love
Ellie
