I agree, Eric. As well as Drs loving to DO/ORDER procedures! Many unnecessary. $$$ for eyeballs.
Yup, IF I do this (after exhausting all options/opinions) I'll insist hubby be there watching the recovery. And having
the nitrobid paste on hand at home too (already do .. never had to use it yet).
We're going to look at my films again (have a copy here on CD ... pretty cool). Our first look, PRIOR TO THE NEWS
FROM THE DR, We saw no stones and if there IS A 4 CENTIMETER ONE ... it's stand out surely!
We're not pros at reading x-rays. But even the tech at the CT Scan place said he saw nothing.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Have the doctor prescribe something like nifedipine or some kind of nitro-patch/paste/pill so you can deal with any post procedure AD. Doctors sure love putting people under. I refuse it whenever possible. For most of us, it's not necessary. Why take on the extra risk? If you can't feel the procedure, why go under? Anesthesia always starts an IV on you and they can administer any medications they need to control AD through the IV. I've heard so many times quads with no feeling being put under for really minor things.
