I have MDS and so far have refused to do this. It is progressing slowly and see no need at this point. Not sure I will ever do it as it is NOT average pain. It is horrific if you ask anyone who has had one
I had it done a week ago. I was very anxious after reading comments on You Tube. Surprisingly, the procedure was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I had a local anesthetic and I only felt pressure while the doctor was inserting the needle in the bone. I was in and out in less than 30 minutes, no need for pain meds and was back to my regular activities in less than 48 hours. If you need to get this done, do it as it could save your life.
2:05 love the glove, makes me all warm and fuzzy ;) I've had high WBC count for nearly 10 years. They are through the roof as my last doc put it. Why wont they take me serious in NSW Australia. Im so weak and thin, i'm down to 47kg now and dropping. Im really sick and they wont do a bone marrow Biopsy. WTF. I really need help, but im on the public system as a pensioner Please tell me. I told the specialist i want chemo while im strong. That was 2 years ago when i could still go to the Gym. Now i sleep 2 days out of 4 and cant put on any weight despit high cal and proteine powders etc. The pain is killing me, non stop bone aches for 2 years plus now. Thanks for your time and videos.

Did you get a sedative? Is it done at hospital?
@@mikedoucet5150 a log biopsy is very painful and I hurt an entire year and I still hurt there. It’s still very tender.
I had a biopsy 3 days ago and felt no pain. They numbed the area with lidocaine.

Why can’t they completely numb this area so there is NO PAIN. I have denied this test before because of pain
Bone marrow biopsy it was the worst pain I ever had my girlfriend heard me screaming and crying in the other room no anesthetic no nothing
Omg they going to do mine on January 28. Now I'm thinking about getting it done or not
The pain is negligible it feels the reverse pressure when the extraction is done 10 to 15 seconds.
Great! 😊
It seems barbaric to me.
And you better get some kind of medicine to go to sleep or you will wake up in the surgery like I did
