Welcome to the forum. Hopefully you won't have to join out little club. Although having a biopsy might seem a little imposing it's not a big deal. They spray a numbing solution and take a tiny little snip. It is very painless. It is far better to know positively. You will sleep better at night with a negative biopsy report.
