biopsy done.

Yep had the biopsy apparently a 'ellipse excisional biopsy on one of the neurofibromas. Well it was quick and I was back home within the hour. They decided to remove a larger one than the had origonaly planned to do so theu have more to work on.

Ah well the local worked, so no pain as yet and I have an excuse not to do any heavy lifting lol. Won't get the results of it for another two weeks so it's a case of waiting around for it. Well not waiting around, i'm still going into work - still need to get paid.

oh well after a bit of bleeding was sorted out with corterizing had two dissolving stiches put in inside the cut and three outside. well it will leave me with a scar but can't help that - always olbus oil.

Aparently i may get a bit of bleeding in the next two days so need to keep the dressing dry and clean etc, got a couple more just in case but hope not to have to change it two often as it's in a hard to reach place on my back.

Forgot to ask about the knee thing but I didn't see the quack but just the surgeon who did the biopsy. Just hope when the local wares off it doesnt hurt too much, but I have a stock of pain killers somewhere.

Ah well just need to see what the results are of the biopsy. At least if it comes back as possitive for NF 1 I'll know what it is.
