Has anyone had this done, if so did you drive home?

DH had one some years ago. As I remember I went with him, presumably partly to drive him home. It was uncomfortable and unpleasant at the time rather than painful, I believe

If you have a twilight sedation you cannot drive home. If you only have a local anaesthetic in theory you can drive home after. Patients aren’t usually too sore afterwards provided the sample was easy to get.
