Not sure whether my pdoc would do it that way or just a few treatments to get me going again.

Yes, I'd have to do a full course first and my big reservation would be fitting it around work, plus following a general anaesthetic it would be illegal to drive for 3 days, so in reality I'd be giving up my driver's licence. My doc asked me to consider it because I'm intolerant of most meds one way or another.
