Hello, You were lucky that you had young fit doctors. For the first 2 biopsies I had a middle aged woman, the 3rd BMB was done by an elderly man who told me that I was very lucky he was doing it because he was very good. He was the doctor who kept slipping off the bone. THE 4th BMB was done by a young fit male doctor but he told me afterwards that it hurt his hand and he still couldn't get a trephine. I was frightened the first time I had a BMB but with the sedation it was painless. When I had the 3rd BMB the doctor said that he didn't think sedation was necessary, I was a bit nervous. It turned out that the BMB wasn't as painful as I thought it would be. In fact, it was interesting to watch. It is 30 degrees here and there is a storm coming so I had better move my cockatiel under cover. Bye Chirley
