I’ve had all 3 of mine without anesthesia. Listen to a podcast, do some labor breathing ... my GE thinks he’s Mel Brooks and likes having a conscious patient to laugh at his jokes.
Kudos
My last one they wheeled me in, and it was a female doctor and her two female assistants, all of them nice looking. I wish they had put me under!
(I did catch up on some nice VA hospital gossip though)
