Hi, when I had my first bone marrow I was put to sleep, never felt a thing, since I was in the hospital at the time, I don't know what dr gave it to me or if it was an onc
Upon my checkup on Monday my onc told me I was going to have another one in October. Ok, I thought, well when he left my nurse came in to wrap up my visit and she was
going
Over my next appt. I told her I want to b put asleep like I was the first time because I have heard nothing but horror stories. Today she calls me and says my onc says absolutely no way that I will put to sleep! He said he will do it and it will not b painful. I am scared to death!!!
Is this normal that ur onc performs the bone marrow biopsy ?? Is it ok not to b put to sleep??
I so need tour input on this
It's three months away and I am already a nervous reck!!
I just don't understand why he is so bound and determined to do it with me awake?
Please tell me how you had your done and who did it.
Thank you!!
