Quick Update

We're back home now after the aspiration. The person doing the procedure (all done with needles, by the way) said she's almost positive that the troublesome spot was just a hematoma, but she took some core samples anyway. She had almost talked herself into just draining the site and sending those samples for biopsy, but decided that it would be more convenient for FrogRev to go ahead and take core samples now just in case. That means more discomfort in the short term, but eliminates a return trip and more waiting if the biopsying person wants to see more than just the fluid drained.

The results take three to five business days, so we're probably looking at next Monday before we hear anything more. Until then, we'll go through some rounds of Tylenol and ice packs.

More news when the biopsy results are in.
