I’ve read up tonight on the drug that they give Dave, it’s called Midazolam, I suggest that you read up on it.

I was given 3mg which I believe is the most they can give for sedation.

Not only does it make you hyper relaxed and possibly nod off but it also destroys the brains ability to create a memory so even if you did have a tricky moment it’s impossible to remember it.

The procedure only takes 3-4 minutes maximum even when taking biopsies like they did with me today and the whole period from lying on my side and biting on the mouth guard is a total blank.

They should issue this at Albion matches!

Like I said before Dave, tell them your an 11 on their 1 to 10 wimp scale ( like me ) and ask if you can have 3mg of the magic juice like I had.

You don’t even need to stress about this for one second mate.
