"I injected with 4-0 with lidocaine" or "I injected with 40-0 with lidocaine, " or "I injected with 40 with lidocaine."  Which one sounds right?  Any clues?

Was - is referring to lidocaine, not the 5 mL.

Of course, it was referring to the lidocaine,
Subject: Of course, it was referring to the lidocaine,

but it still sounds better if you use "was" instead of "were." Just as you wouldn't say, "2 cups of water was spilled" but instead, "2 cups of water were spilled." It's a matter of what sounds better, in some cases. :-)
5 mL of 1% lidocaine WERE injected...
Subject: 5 mL of 1% lidocaine WERE injected...

In response to Mark's question, "5 cc of 1% lidocaine was or were injected", the text from the grammar website below, from the topic, "Subject-Verb Agreement", explains why "WERE" was the right word there.  Per that text, the "5 mL" (but not the "lidocaine") becomes the Subject, and the Verb should be in plural.

I'm doing a Review of Records list, and it says Request for AX to refer PT to a "Psych." I was thinking it meant access, but I don't know if that would make sense. Anybody know what AX stands for in this example? Thanks!

short example
Subject: short example

All four patients initially underwent surgical excisions of the pilonidal cyst followed by primary closure of the wound and application of a penrose drain. Pre-operative antibiotic treatment followed by a 10-day post-operative antibiotic course was used. Intra-operative identification of the sinus tract was made using a lacrimal probe and methylene blue injection of the sinus tract opening. Closure of the wound was accomplished with a subcutaneous 3-0 vicryl suture followed by a subcuticular 4-0 vicryl reinforced with 3-0 nylon interrupted suture. All procedures were done as same-day surgery. The drain had been pulled on initial follow-up within seven days on all the patients.
