  • Hello Lancer, 

    Welcome to the forum although I'm sorry to hear about the problems that have led you here. 

    I know that lots of our members here will agree that waiting for results can be an awful worrying time. 

    We have some information on our website about vacuum assisted biopsy and why a clip is fitted. You might like to have a read through it here. If you think it would help to talk things through then please do give our team of nurses a call on 0808 800 4040. They are available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    Best wishes,
