I have DCIS with microinvasion so I need to have a SN biopsy.

I am having a Mx on Th and the injection of dye and radiology procedure for the sentinel node the day before in the AM.  I go to "nuclear radiology."

what I am wondering is, will I be able to go get my haircut, do errands etc after the sentinel node thing?  there are still some things I need to do to prep for my surgery!

thks

    Hi babe,



    The injection of the dye only hurt for about a minute. For me, it ended up being a nonevent. I was able to go about my day afterward. All the best to you on your surgery!
