low-end lipo

a September story reported
that a New York man was searching
for ways to lose weight effectively.
wanting liposuction but not the cost,
he allowed his friend to perform
liposuction on him in his garage.

the term that labels his garage death
was “lidocaine overdose” - which is
an overdose of a local anesthetic.
this overdose indicate that our
at-home patient needed more and more
pain relief from his friends trying to
free him of his flab.
