Please share your experience with liver biopsy. Submit Your Comment
Liver biopsy does help with diagnosis. Please have them put you in twilight sleep at least. My first one was without even pain medicine and it was almost unbearable. I almost passed out. From then on I always told them only way I would have it done was to be out. I have had about 4 done. I have non-alcoholic cirrhosis.
