I know exactly how you feel. I foolishly hooked my little finger on a 4-0 6x hook taking a plug down from a hanger on the ceiling. It went through the finger with the barb inside the flesh. Being my right hand and having arthritus in my hands I couldn't cut the hook to pull it through. My wife couldn't cut the hook either so I snipped the split ring and went to the local hospital to have it removed. I also sat for 5 hours with that trebble hook sticking out of the finger. When finally treated they took x-rays and went through the usual preliminaries. The doc took one look and used a pair of snippers that cut the hook easily, pulled it through and discharged me in all of 5 minutes.
