They kept saying just 5 more minutes. I’m sure I was in there about 40 minutes total. I have a bad back and it’s hard to stay completely still and add to that being extremely cramped. They wanted to do a second round with some kind of dye injected. “Just 5 minutes”. By then I knew they were full of shit and made them stop. I was soaked with sweat and could barely get off the table. I’ll never do another without some kind of drugs.
