The physician was ex-military so he just said "Yeah, okay." They did start 
an IV in case I started screaming. It looked something like a video game 
where you're navigating a tunnel with little pools of green water here and 
there. Then a little snipper would shoot out to grab a piece for analysis.

I've has much worse gas pains. I think the push sedation in case the 
patient freaks out more than any discomfort involved. A friend was sedated 
and his sister had to drag him home in a zombie state. I got dressed and 
went to work.
