I have had 3 and I wouldn't hesitate at all if I needed 12 more. I was like Nurse Nancy and had a radiologist do it under fluoroscopy so he could see exactly where to place the needle. Yeah, the local anesthetic had a little sting to it just like if you were going to have a mole removed from your arm.
