Could Doctors Use Alternative Numbing Solution Before Surgery?

Hi guys,

Before surgery, a doctor injects some liquid into your scalp presumably to numb it. Since I have a pre-existing medical condition, do you know if a doctor can dilute it or use an alternative solution that doesnt give less or no side effects?

Hasn't been quite a full year yet, since my HT. From what I remember, the numbing is the most painful. The needle they use. Then the swelling days later. A lot of fun. Your scalp is fully numb. Almost like a helmet. I think there is some comparison used like a helmet to this. I am sure if there was something better, it would be being used. Just my 2 cents.

Good Luck!
