I have not had a bone marrow biopsy yet. That is scheduled for the 13th.
What showed up negative were blood markers for bone marrow disorders. So Dr wanted to follow up with the biopsy.

Oops, I was focused on the comment about negative blood markers for bone marrow disorder that I forgot your first reply in Connect talking about your biopsy on the 13th!
Nothing wrong with my memory. 🙄 Sorry about that.

So you will be having the bone marrow biopsy (BMBX) next week. This is a really good idea to have the biopsy completed. There’s so much information provided by the detailed reports that come out of the analysis of the small, spongy core sample and the peripheral liquid in surrounding marrow.
Unfortunately, the timing on results will test your patience further as it can take a full week or more for the testing and analysis to be completed. Since this is your first biopsy, do you have any questions?
