Bone Marrow Biopsy

Hi everyone,

I'm due to have a bone marrow biopsy done at the end of the month with only local anaesthetic. I am really nervous about it, I have not had one for ten years and the last one I had I was only 14 so they put me under general anaesthetic. Can anyone give me any advice on what it will be like as a procedure and what to expect? I'm not sure if I should ask for some sort of sedation or not.

Thanks,
Carolyn
