I got referred to hem/onc because I was noted to have anemia with normal iron studies and severely elevated b12 without any supplementation. I have also been extremely fatigued, easy bruising, and had a petechial rash that started on the tops of both of my thighs and lasted more than 2 weeks.
I felt nothing during the procedure. Make sure you listen carefully to post procedure. I am still icing a week later. I have a bad low back (pre-myeloma diagnosis) and am in pain most days. Some people feel very little during and post procedure. Always hope for the best!
