I wonder how much a bone marrow biopsy hurts.

After calling four times and waiting two days, I finally got a call back from my doctor. I guess he wasn’t working today, and called me from home. It’s a good thing he called, too, since I got a bunch of forms from Northwest Cancer Specialists. Kind of a surprise. A couple of forms, a bunch of pamphlets, and a card with an appointment scheduled. I guess he scheduled an appointment for me with the hematologist once the results from the second blood test came back looking odder than the first. And I thought the laser level was a disappointment.

The good news: it’s probably not leukemia. The test didn’t indicate that.

The bad news: I may get a bone marrow biopsy. From what I hear, that could really hurt, and I can’t think how how it would help.

People keep asking, “What’s wrong?” How would I know? They didn’t let me into medical school.
