I did it 2 months ago with Dr Hubert in american hospital, no pain from the needle going in, it was just a tad uncomfortable when he did the liquid aspiration, it felt a bit like someone was pinching me inside (not painfully so). Wish you well. x

I had one year's ago at the American Hospital. I remember it being relatively easy, no more pain than having an injection. The anxiety over the procedure is more than the procedure itself. Wish you well.

Just did this a couple of weeks ago at wellcare with Dr. Fouad Al Saraj. The pain is bearable, and you are supposed to stand still and not swallow when the needle is in. Good Luck. Hope it turns out fine.
