More details to this question:
The injection dose was much too large as it caused me severe and truly excruciating pain, to the extent that several attendants were required to hold me down on the gurney. Factors that should have been known and considered before injection include my history of hypertension, COPD, as wall as an advanced abdominal aortic aneurism (AAA). The pain lasted for about an hour, but the trauma caused by it remain to this day, unabated by the passage of time. The above surgery and following acts took place at the Veterans Hospital in Seattle, WA, on September 01, 2011.
