Guest guest Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 ---I think the doc is being cautious which is why he'll do another ultrasound at the end of January. If the problem still appears, I imagine a needle biopsy would be ordered. In the meantime, I'm trying to avoid touching the area as that bruises it, and makes me think it's worse. Funny how we want to go after something like that!
