Hi Gmill,
Sorry to hear about your problems post the bone marrow biopsy. I’ve had 3 thus far, to detect and access the state of my disease - I have multiple myeloma. I have experienced soreness and pain post aspiration that lasted couple days to a week max. Reading your experience, it would be best to consult a specialist that really understands the procedure and your problem. Also, Since you are training for Ironman, I’m assuming you have a rigorous exercise routine - does that have anything to do with the discomfort?

Have you had any long term discomfort?

Part of me also feels badly because I didn't need to do this procedure but I was convinced by a company that it would be a good thing to do. I did this procedure to bank stem cells while I am young and now I am having issues with it.

I'm assuming my working out has to do with the pain, but it's mainly rough in the morning and not while I actually am working out.
