Velociraptor Aug 2023 8:32pm, 6 Aug 2023 64,819 posts	0 Velociraptor I would rather have a mammogram than a prostatic ultrasound

Nellers Aug 2023 8:36pm, 6 Aug 2023 41,047 posts	0 Nellers I had to google that and now I wish I hadn't. Again, not something I've had to experience (Yet and long may that continue) but that doesn't look fun, but is presumably better than something not being detected and treated.
GlennR Aug 2023 8:47pm, 6 Aug 2023 71,881 posts	0 GlennR I can personally recommend ultrasound for zapping kidney stones. Can, but won't.
Velociraptor Aug 2023 8:49pm, 6 Aug 2023 64,821 posts	0 Velociraptor I would also rather have a million mammograms than another kidney stone. (Mine crumbled and passed without assistance, thankfully, for lithotripsy wasn't around in 1981.)
Lip Gloss Aug 2023 9:17pm, 6 Aug 2023 70,555 posts	0 Lip Gloss I found the needle biopsy in the breast very painful indeed. I thought they would never stop pushing in the needle
Flatlander Aug 2023 9:32pm, 6 Aug 2023 2,849 posts	0 Flatlander I almost wish I'd had lithotripsy to get rid of my kidney stone rather than the after effects of the treatment that actually was given.
Diogenes Aug 2023 9:36pm, 6 Aug 2023 80,684 posts	0 Diogenes I have been present during a procedure performed with the help of prostatic ultrasound many times. I hope I never have to have one. Some men tolerate it much better than others.
