Paget’s

Laner

Good Evening Ladies,

I’m having a biopsy of the nipple done in the morning to further look into Paget’s symptoms.Can anyone tell me what will probably be done? Is it painful? Is the scarring bad?

Thank you,

Elena

Hi Laner-

We want to welcome you to BCO! We're sorry you find yourself here with this worry, but we hope you find support in this community.

Pain level and scarring after a biopsy will vary greatly from person to person, and depending on the technique used to collect the sample. You can read more about biopsies and what to expect here: https://www.breastcancer.org/symptoms/testing/type...

Best of luck tomorrow, keep us posted!
