I feel like kind of an idiot for not asking this question when my biopsy was scheduled, but I've been a bit foggy lately, and forgot to ask, so here goes.
Does anyone know how long you typically stay in recovery (i.e. before you can go home) when you have had a standard needle biopsy of the kidney? A friend is driving me home after my biopsy on Tuesday, and I have no idea what to tell her in terms of when to come get me!
I'm sure it varies depending on the protocols in the place you get it done and how quickly you recover, but a ballpark estimate would be very helpful!
