SKIN PUNCH BIOPSY OF RIGHT NIPPLE LESION

DiannaClaire

Just curious.... my Gram Stain Result came back "No Organisms Seen". I know this is good and shows that I don't have an "infection". Wouldn't you think that the sample taken would also be sent to pathology to look at the cells? Or is this it?

I had an excisional biopsy of the other breast which I'm still waiting on. I had to be seen before my post-op followup because the right breast was very red, painful and leaking a greenish discharge. She told me the report showed there was nothing bad showing on the right, told me that the punch biopsy was hard on my breast because it was dead center on my nipple. Gave me antibiotics and told me to come back for my regularly scheduled post-op followup appt on Friday.

I guess my question....(yes, I will ask more questions on Friday), should I be expecting a full pathology report on both breasts even though my Gram Stain Culture was taken?

I'll join the crown....waiting sucks!!!
