I thought my doctor was helping me with these lumbar injections...
But found out, he was just stabbing me in the back!

@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de Were you learning to do the procedure, or having it done!?

Had it done by people learning it. When I assumed the position they instructed me not to assume it finally worked. Pure agony.
