I beg to differ with you...what would you call the procedure?

any time a person is sedated and unaware...it is medically called surgery..I have lived with a heart diseased person for 52 years...a quad bypass, and stents number of times, and now his second defibrillator is implanted...they have come a long way with caring for the heart...how thankful we who have endured this know...

this morning my brother in law just was released from hospital after having two stents implanted...a family of eight males, all with heart disease...inherited from both sides of the family...

we wish GWB the best..he is a strong willed man and will do well..

So, my colonoscopy was a surgery?

“any time a person is sedated and unaware”

I was wide awake for the three stents that they inserted into my heart. I watched the procedure on the large-screen, real-time x-ray.

I consider getting a haircut a ‘surgery’. But that’s just me!
