I held off for 2 years , but . <| sep |> I had a friend just like you when I was in my 20 s . The guy could sleep through a tornado passing right outside his window . He saw doctors and eventually a therapist . Ultimately , the doctor ' s thought is was due to his heavy sleeping . I don ' t know much about that , but apparently there is a number of folks that can ' t wake up unless physically awoken . Obviously , they can wake up , but something like the urge to pee isn ' t nearly enough to wake them . <| sep |> Iirc it ' s the other way around . <| sep |> Gore Tex has a lifetime warranty . <| sep |> He ain ' t that hurt . <| sep |> Crying would be nice . I usually just pass out or come close to it . I have to warn the nurse every time , because I will inevitably be on the brink of unconsciousness by the time they ' re done . I know logically it ' s a harmless procedure , but the moment that needle comes out logic goes flying out the window .
