If this biopsy is a sural nerve one... think long and hard about it.
It will only show what you know already. And some people get
permanent pain from the procedure.

type in "sural" to our search here --the link is at the top of the first page on PN--- and there are many discussions.

example:

If your procedure is the SKIN biopsy, it may show something useful and this one is not so risky or damaging.

Type in "skin biopsy" to search for that one.
our subforum has a general informational post about this one:

Glenn talks about it all the time, too. He has lots of experience with it.
