I just had Biopsy today. During biology procedures, when the needle come out, excessive blood just like heavy rain dripping from the machine to my legs. Is it normal? I was worrieddd some things wrong

    Sometimes they are just working in a vascular place. Did they tell you something was wrong, or put pressure on it and bandage it? Did it stop bleeding

    One of my biopsies was like that, it depends on how vascular the area is. I imagine they stopped the bleeding before sending you on your way?

    They put pressure on it about 1 hours and stop bleeding. They did not tell me anything but they were very nervous. All of the nurses come to the room and tried to help and around me. The Robe and my pans were blood covered. Looked terrible and scary. After back to home, they called me every 3 hours to check if everything was ok. I was wondering, if it was something wrong seriously, they might not tell me duo to liabilities. I hope everything was fine.

    They probably just went through a very vascular area. You're not on blood thinners, are you? Be really careful not to bump your breast. I think I had pressure held for an hour or so too. It was not fun.
