Kevin had a punch biopsy in the lymph node on a Friday and we knew on Monday. I actually knew right away from what the pathologist said and how she looked when she came in to let the doctor know she had what she needed. They let me stay in the room while they did it. They did that using Ultrasound though, so it was not in the office, it was at the hospital. Good luck tomorrow. Let us know.
