Thanks for the info Mr. Matic. Why not perform the procedure under a general anaesthetic? I think some of my friends had that.

The queensland public hospital system couldn't afford to pay for the device AND the anaesthetic

I guess they figure that the risks of a general are unwarranted when the procedure can be done with light sedation and locals.
