I think the trauma was not anxiety. I already knew I had cancer before the biopsy, it was just a confirmation test.

However I had a strong physical shock reaction to the biopsy afterwards. A little follow-up and a place to lay down for a bit would have been helpful - instead of here's a bandaid and you'll have the test results in . . .
