Good luck- make it clear if they encounter extensive scar tissue/ that they can’t easily get thru- you will have nerves damaged. Tell them, use their discretion but don’t act like surgeons with their egos-stop at that point. You don’t need to get worse

I almost jumped off of the bed because the Valium didn’t work and the dr went for it anyways. I managed to get two holes burrowed all the way but I was screaming and my legs were jumping so bad that he yelled at me twice saying if I don’t stay still he’s not going to finish. I asked if I could get sedation and he said no. I literally felt EVERY bit of pain of the burrowing splitting through nerves in my scar tissue. *Only do it with sedation*
