Sukie, I'm trying this one again. I've gotten written permission from Lynne.
She is having trouble posting to the group directly.
[Moderator's note: Lynne sent permission directly later.]
***************************************
Ok maybe this will help. *To the Moderators*: For some reason my posts won't
go thru to the FHL so Laura has my permission to pass on any of them. If
they are of a personal nature I will let her know.

I'm forwarding this on to the list as well. I think it's good for people to
read others perspective.
I was thinking the same thing -- that sedatives if they can be avoided
should be. But, it's only one time for the implant, right? There seems to be
other alternative as well, I like the lidocaine injection idea.
Thanks again, Lynne!
Laura
