Bone Marrow Test

It took just a few minutes.

First, the hematologist cleaned my butt area.

Then she administered anesthesia.

Before, I knew it, I heard the dreaded words, "Hinga ng malalim" (breathe deeply).

I screamed in pain! It was excruciating as the doctor pulled out a piece of "me".

This is the second time in a few months that I underwent such a test. But this was much more painful.

I hope the pain was worth it.

I hope it meant, "All is clear."
