Mine wasn't so good - it didn't put me out, it didn't do much for the pain, and I had bad reaction to it afterwards (fortunately, it started just after I was discharged but still actually in the hospital). Not helped by the procedure taking over twice as long as normal and they still couldn't get the thing all the way round
Then two weeks later a similar process but with xrays. And a bed that span me every which way except upside down... (and they still don't have the full picture)

Same here. And also no picture
As for what's in my cup... nothing!

Off to remedy that!
