Hello, and thank you for your time. I am two years in on a stage four cancer diagnosis, (kidney, lungs, and bone). Early on I had to have a lung biopsy done and fentanyl was used to put me into the" twilight" state. I don't remember the procedure, but I can tell you that it hurt severely and for a few days afterwards. I do not brag when I say that I am a relatively robust person, so I was wondering if this is a reasonable amount of time for this type of procedure to heal? The reason I ask is because I may have to do it again and the doctors are not exactly forthcoming.

Than you very much. I shall be sure to check with them. It's just curious because everyone seems to be going the fentanyl/ twilight route, and, personally, I don't really see it as an improvement over traditional anesthesia.
