I had a lung biopsy about four years ago. The procedure itself was pretty easy and painless. Mentally preparing was the hard part. I just tried to accept that the procedure was going to tell me what was already going on and that it was information I needed to know. My results were positive for malignant net tumors and I ended up having to have the middle and lower lobes of my right lung removed. That procedure was also painless and I waa up and walking pain free about two hours after the procedure was completed. I hope your biopsy tests results are good. Best wishes! You can do it.
