Had the snip with a local anaesthetic.

Watched every cut, snip and stitch....Only the soldering iron thingy that made my toes curl up. LOL

A good rule of thumb (sorry) is that if a doctor is happy to do a procedure under a local it's probably not going to be so uncomfortable you'll be wriggling about.

The best thing is that you get to watch and tell your pals what happened.

Worked in anaesthetics and theatres for years.

They wouldn't even consider it if they thought for a moment you'd be in pain.

It's much better to have local than a general...a general anaesthetic is always more risky x

Me too - although I didn't have a soldering iron used lol

And I would go with the Kountess on this one too, local is always better and less risky than general

I had surgery under local, felt only a tiny bit of discomfort but that was due to what they were operating on as opposed to not enough anaesthetic.

Ditto except that they never explained what was happening. I though the snip was a cut, I asked what was burning and the surgeon said "you".

There is nothing to worry about, more and more op's are being done under locals I had a knee op under a local and felt nothing. Only problem was it took longer than expected to wear off and I almost ended up staying the night as it was an epidural and I couldn't walk.

Locals save on overnight stays and nursing costs.

Had a lump removed first ever op and I was shiting myself.

It was done by a plastic surging as it was in a visible place.

apart from the injections(anastetic) and knowing he was digging in my face it was all good.

potty he couldn't make me any better looking.

I did ask but he said he was a plastic surgeon not a magician.

red.
