By now you shouldnt be in so much pain. I suggest calling the doc and asking to get rechecked due to the biopsy pain persisting. You can ask if they could write a prescription for pain meds. Some patients barely feel the biopsy while others have lots of pain. Your could be in pain due to the location and depth of the biopsies and what your pain tolerance is. Im one who is pretty wimpy and I usually am ok after about 2 or 3 days. The day after the biopsy is taken normally is the worst one.
Hope you feel better very soon and wishing you all the best with your test results. Please let us know how you make out.
