What do you mean when you say “the medical community is underreporting it?” I acknowledged that my experience is not the universal experience, but also that my doctor was aware of this possibility and informed me of it before the procedure. The fact that yours didn’t along with disregarding your known symptom after the fact shows that they’re not very good at their job, but says nothing about the procedure itself nor what the other person is claiming to be universally true.
As per my last comment, my doctor did warn me about the risk. I don’t know why you keep reading the opposite.
Everyone else in this thread is going by their own anecdotal experience. Mine is that I complained about long term pain and they didn’t help me or record it. I.e., my complication went unreported. Why is my anecdotal experience less valid than yours?
Edit: for the sake of wrapping this up, even if “I got a shit doc” therefore what? It was my fault for not picking a better one? If you have a cogent point to make, get to it
You’re saying your doctor warned you about this risk, but then didn’t believe it was real when you were one of the unlucky ones to be affected by it? Again your gripe seems to be with the doctor not the procedure.

I made my point quite clearly in my last comment.
