my doctor has suggested that I undergo a needle biopsy of my lung, most of the information I have found researching on the Internet is a little vague. Of course as a diver my lungs are critical, and I think twice before I allow someone to poke a needle in there and leave a little hole both in the lung and the chest cavity as well. Has any other diver out there gone through this procedure? How did it go? Can you expect to return to full lung capacity, any complications? If any of you you have had this procedure I would appreciate hearing from you about your experience.
