Do drs usually do a biopsy during a scope? or unless they see something unusual ? i resently had a endoscopy and very worried since they did a biopsy

Biopsy: Is very commonly done during scopes. Doesn't mean anything bad, doesn't mean they saw anything bad, it's just part of the screen. They do a biopsy to see if maybe there is some inflammation that is not obvious to the naked eye. Take a big breath and wait for your official results.
