Berg it, that was a different story for me. The one BMB.I had done while in hospital (different doctor too) was performed by a doctor from a pathology company and refused to give me sedation even though I asked for it. He just said that he would give me sedation if I were a man but that women had a higher pain threshold so I wouldn't need it. I told him I had tough bones and he replied that he was strong and went to the gym.
End result, he had to take the biopsy from the front of the iliac crest after failing from the back. So I got to watch it all. He also kept slipping off the bone and puncturing me in the abdomen, fortunately it didn't hurt at all when he did this and I have to agree with him that the procedure while not pleasant wasn't agony either. The fun part was watching the faces of the medical students while he was doing it......some of them looked a bit sick, others grimaced....it was hard not to laugh.
Regards
