Everybody worries about the go-in, but it's the outcome that really matters. I wish you a good outcome.
I didn't want to bring this up before you went under the anal probe because they probably wouldn't have been able to pry your access point open with a crowbar after reading about my epxerience, but here is what I wrote about my experience a few months ago.
"I’ve had three or four of the old style biopsies and they were unpleasant but they were a walk in the park compared to this new improved literal pain in the ass.
OH MY FKIN’ GOD!
First, the doctor had the bedside manner of a rabid badger. He walked in to the exam room, where I was lying on my side with my naked ass sticking out. He said, “Hello, I’m going to do a quick rectal exam,” and without another word jammed something up my ass. I had never met this guy, had no idea what he even looked like, but he didn’t sound American and he’s back there, poking assorted objects up my flu. Something he was doing hurt like hell and I kept moving away from the pressure. He said, “Hold on still please sir, you keep moving avay!” I practically shouted, “Damn right I’m moving away, it hurts!!”
So finally the nurse piped up and said, “We gave you a lidocaine injection and it should be kicking in in a minute." I asked if they would kindly wait a minute for it to kick in before they shoved the garden hose up my ass again. They did, and after the lidocaine kicked in it was fairly smooth sailing, but damn!
So today I got the results back:
"
Dr. **** has reviewed the results of your prostate biopsy showing all benign (non-cancerous) prostate tissue. He recommends following up in the office in 8 months with a repeat PSA blood test."
I hope you get the same result.
