The next day, the nurse who accompanied me during the biopsy called me to check in.
This time, I missed the call because I had gone for a walk. I called her back and left a message thanking her for her call and saying I was doing fine.
She had sent me home with two instant cold packs. I had used them both the evening before, as instructed, even though I didn't feel any pain.
I removed the band-aids and realized that the extraction locations were "below" the lumps, not directly adjacent to them, but on the underside of my breast. Over the weekend, the areas would become bruised, but they didn't hurt. I didn't feel much discomfort at all, except for some itchiness around the band-aids and steri-strips.
