Oh man. . . Now that's horrible. I work with a guy who went through that and his story is not a pleasant one.  :eek:

Is that the condition wherein the patient, despite being properly anesthetized, is fully awake and "aware" during a procedure?  :spooked:

:spooked: :spooked:

The thought of that happening scares the shit out of me.

I woke up once during a minor surgery, I remember hurting and saying that really hurts. The doctor said, "I don't think she is far enough under." A bit of an understatement,  imo.

I learned about this right before I went into surgery to have 6 bypasses done.

Damn near had a dual accident right there on the bed.

Something happened to me last fall when I had surgery on my left eye (glaucoma). Don't know you would classify it.

I was scared beforehand and especially after I got to the hospital, but things went so smoothly after I got my IV that I was aware of the trip to the O.R. but then nothing  -- until at some point, out of total darkness, a quick stab of pain, then back into the darkness, then what sounded and felt like water flushing, then that quick stab of pain again, then darkness. Time had no meaning but I gradually became aware of voices somewhere. After a while they got closer, and then I slowly, dreamily, smoothly came back from wherever my consciousness was. I remember thinking I should tell my doctor what happened, but didn't. There were no post-op complications, no nausea, no pain, so I got to go home fairly quickly, where I probably slept for at least 12 hours.

Not a pleasant experience, to say the least.

Hope you weren't too traumatized by it.

Thank you.  :)  It was scary just to think about the surgery, and then to have that happen ... :spooked:

  Isn't it shame that we all get old, tired, feeble and sick.  Then you find out those gold years is a farce and a lie.  Then you find out that we have a group of assholes who want to take all the safety net from you that you paid into all of your working life.   :rant:

  It's enough to make you sick.  :angry:      :zoners:

Since you all do not believe in God, why are you worried about death?
RC I believe the only difference in those who believe in God and those who are agnostic, like myself and some others on here, is you and HH have put a name with your creator and we haven't.  Some of us are just more tolerant of others beliefs than others.

My latest procedure they put me in twilight. . . I have very little memory of it. Thankfully!

One of the things I hate is being at the dentist and they are working on a tooth and say "Oh shit!" :)
