A member asked:
My daughter is 15 she is getting a biopsy done on her stomach lining will she be in any pain and how with the procedure go and will be able to go home?

No pain, can go home: It would be important to know why she is getting the biopsy. The procedure sounds like upper endoscopy with biopsy. This is done under complete sedation, unless the patient chose not to. It is painless, and the patient can go home after probably 1 hour or so when patient wakes up completely, and if there is no complication. There may be a minor bleeding at the biopsy, but it is usually negligible.
