I call BS, it was more along the lines of conscious sedation, GA is not used for this type of procedure normally except in certain conditions or sensitivities . You were slightly awake but the medication made you not recommend it. I can tell with one question. when you woke up did you have a scratchy or sore throat?
Its not the pain its the discomfort of the C02 they inject to inflate the intestine that is very uncomfortable. See previous posts to see the volume that can be in the large intestine alone.

thats your blinders you have on that your not seeing the light. The previous link i posted the bomber had been around those people for hours to almost a day before doing so.

Imagine how much more I have missed?
Ayman_al-Zawahiri was a surgeon, so your argument holds no water.
Incisions heal within 21 days on average. The rest of your comments show you truely dont what your talking about and are grasping at anything. Preventing infection is very easily done with proper technique, medication and other methods. Implants are put in the human body all of the time, there are ways of putting things in the human body so that nothing gets into the body. GoreTex (there are many other materials but this is the most commonly used material) is routinely used in surgery and a pouch can be made from GoreTex that a device can be put in so that nothing from it can leach into the body or device. Then there are med ports, G-buttons, miki port, and more.

I think you have it backwards, but not surprising.

still poses a major threat. The design of an IED is limited only by the imagination of the designer.
Did you read the thread about the Asian guy disguised as an elderly Caucasian man? Did you see the pictures? And there are people here that think that the elderly cannot pose a threat to commercial aviation. You would think that none of them had ever seen Mrs. Doubtfire.
Do we really have to go over this again, the liquid threat is pure BS, MI6 even said so. If you had any knowledge or education in chemistry and physics you wouldnt be spewing the company line.
the guy was wearing a disguise, it has nothing to do with the elderly, your trying to connect two dissimilar things.
