Hi Karen,
It depends how much sedation is used. I am such weenie, I had the full ride...Diprivan and all. I lost count how many I have had, maybe 13 or 14 now over years, but I am lucky in that they knock out a lot of symptoms for 3 or 4 months. Guess my pain is to an extent sympathetic mediated pain.
The transient unilateral vocal cord paralysis for a day is a pain in the ****, choking on my saliva and all but I'll take for the everal months of feeling better.
