If anyone is overly anxious regarding a bone marrow biopsy, talk to your doctor about doing it under mild sedation. I went to sleep, woke up, didn’t feel a thing. And I finally got an accurate diagnosis.

Good comment! I had first one with concious sedation in radiology, out for about 2-hours, no pain and don't remember anything. 2nd was bedside in hospital, I had to request sedation before procedure, but it was given too me. If you have a low pain tolerance or anxiety, I recommend get the sedation. Thanks for your comment.
