Since the biopsy was so painful, I elected to be put under general anesthesia for the removal of the “mole,” which now has spread to two seperate spots that cover together nearly the size of a dime. Local anesthesia was an option, but, as a nurse, I was chicken. Finally, a nurse anesthetist came and pushed something into my IV. I asked, “Is that Fentanyl? 8221; Tryi...
