Nah. I get happy juice when I have an angiogram but not for these. We numb the area with Lidocane and he goes to work. Of course there was the "small pinch" which I think they should all have to experience sometime in their training. That and the "mild discomfort" with some other things.

I'm not saying I want to do this every day but they've done nastier things to me.

It's so weird finally feeling no pain. Now I'm just learning just how off balance (no jokes) I am. The muscles in my back now just feel tight and my thighs "heavy" is the only way to describe it.

The nurse asked me about sedation and I said I hadn't thought he ordered it. I said the only reason he would have ordered it it was to shut me up for a while. Truth be told, I could have had it if I wanted it.
