Because of my nerve trauma, I personally try prevent getting hijacked too much by preventable, acute pain. When I had an extraction done last year they gave me a dab of ketamine and versed and in hindsight I was really glad I wasn't awake for the procedure even though many people could be.

Is the doctor's hesitancy due to difficulty in doing a proper local in the area for the size polyp she has to remove?
