I have had several biopsies and they are not that bad. There is a BRIEF period of pain but is very quick. I took adivan and/or lorazepam to calm my nerves before each. I think the anxiety is the worst part of it. Most Docs will give you a light sedative to take that morning. (My hospital does anyway.) You will be ok! Hugs..
