Liver biopsy w/sedation
Hi. Tomorrow I undergo a liver biopsy. If you've experienced one, did it hurt? They will use propofol to put me under. Has anyone had this happen? Did they fully put you under or was there just a certain level of sedation?
I'm very nervous. Please share your experiences.
Thanks so much!

I had liver biopsy last month
I had liver biopsy last month and was painless. Don’t worry. They put me in a light sadation and I watched the doctor as he removed the biopsy samples with only feeling a pinch when needle went in. Also, the incision was a pin hole with no bleeding afterwards. Please take my word, going to the dentist is worse! Good luck!!
