Not to defend the cost, but I will defend the procedure as not being simple (had one). It involves not hitting the vagus nerve, which runs through the nose through the nervous system. One passes out easily just standing up, or from the pressure changes in an airplane descent.

My surgeon was excellent, but we both learned how disturbed my vagus nerve was by the procedure. Anyone in a hurry could change someone’s life.
