How painful is it to donate bone marrow?

[IZZIRO]

I'm thinking of donating after I'll be 18, so I want to know as many details as possible, i read something on the internet but a personal opinion would be better.

It is very painful! My wife had to have marrow extracted a few times due to her cancer. She said it felt like they were trying to suck her foot up through her leg to her hip where the needle went in. But those kind of donations are certainly needed and I hope you're u go through with it. You are to be commended!

I think the same thing. A good idea of ​​having a benefit to humanity

I have donated bone marrow to my uncle a few years back.. they do tell you it will hurt but there is some anistetic so it does help... BUT... IT HURTS LIKE HELL FOR DAYS!!! Do not take this procedure lightly
