    Just had surgery today under general anesthesia. I was extremely worried about being unconscious. When I woke up,I did not remember a thing. I was under for over two hours. But it felt like five minutes to me. My surgery went extremely well,and I would tell anyone who is getting surgery not to worry at all. I felt like it was the best sleep of my life. 😊

    I personally remember feeling quite emotional, tired and discomfort. I was so tired when the nurse gently woke me up but I remember being comforted because she was singing "Over the Rainbow". I'm not sure if she was sing to me or to herself but it made me feel safe.

    I just had a surgery under general anesthesia and all i want to say was i was extremely worried before like not even caring for the actual surgery itself and all i can say is that it is an extremely easy experience. I got into the operating room very nervous and I remember then telling me to breath from the mask and i just kept repeating the word sleep in my head and the next second im in recovery. They had told me i would have burning in my arm as they were injecting the medication but it wasnt anything like that it was actually a nice feeling sort of like a little buzz going up the arm and then out. Nothing else. So if your going under anesthesia anytime soon trust me, do not worry because it is very easy. I hope this helps!

Next thing I knew I was in the recovery room. ANESTHESIA IS NOT THAT SERIOUS. I literally freaked out all day because of it and it was very peaceful.

Didn't even know I had drifted off and then found myself in the recovery room. When I come to, I was so comfortable, refreshed and felt like I had 8 hours sleep, when in fact I was only under for 30 mins. So please don't worry. Whenever I have a bad nights sleep genuinely I always think of the time I was under and how nice it felt after x 😊

    Hey guys, I was watching these videos for months before I had a massive scalp lipoma removed from top of my head 7cmx7cmx2cm deep. I was terrified of being put to sleep, I went into the pre op room, this is where my nurse put my iv in, gave me pain killers and oxy via pills, once this was done my Anastasia tech came in and talked to me, informed me of everything he was Gona do: asked me if I get nervous which I said yes too. He then gave me Versed (happy drug) via my iv which you can’t feel it being injected. This made me feel really good and calmed me down a lot. After this I lost track of time and memory of the next 25 minutes before they wheeled me to my OR room. Next thing i remember is waking up in recovery. (Feeling absolutely amazing), it was like the best high I have ever had without any bad side effects. Once that was over they gave me juice and food and made sure I could pee & then sent me on my way home. The scalp lipoma removal recovery is not bad at all. I’d say at worst was a 4/10 pain. I’m not even using pain killers they prescribed me and I’m 3 days post op

    I’ve had my wisdom teeth and tonsils removed. Both times, I was put under by anesthesia. What’s weird is I dimly remember “waking up” from both operations. It felt like a dream, but it was real. After my wisdom teeth were yanked, I started singing Hamilton and the doctors kept telling me to be quieter. After my tonsils were removed, I started crying and calling out for my mom, who drove me to the surgery and was sitting in the waiting room. Anesthesia is a very interesting experience.

I only was comfortable going consciously through the second surgery because I had a crush on my neurosurgeon lol! So that helped.

I passed out before they even did the nerve block. best sleep ive had since my first surgery december 10th. dont stress about it. just know your gonna have some really good sleep. i always wake up scared. specially this morning because none of my family could be back with me so i woke up with no one near me. but good luck to everyone!

    Just got all my wisdom teeth out, two of which were cut out. Barely felt the prick of the needle. Oral surgeon said I will be out in 15 seconds, that’s how long it takes to reach my brain. Suddenly I said it feels like I’m super drunk, because I became slightly dizzy and then I was waking up. Upon waking apparently I said I want to take my teeth with me so they gave them to me to take home lol. I felt funny walking immediately after but no drowsy effects or silly ness soon as I got into the car for my ride. Now I’ve been to three shops and told I look great. Didn’t need gauze after three hours. I’m 35. I’m still half numb because he said I will be for 12 hours but feeling great.
    I was shaking with anxiety on the way there and I feel that was the worst part of the whole thing. It was a breeze. Nothing to be scared of. I’d do it again no problem if I had to.

  • @dystopia9006
    @dystopia9006 2 роки тому +2

    Anaesthesia is a little scary to be frank, I had undergone it as a child and remember to this day. There is a point where your eyesight begins to blur and light dims, then, voices begin to fade, you can literally hear them tunnelling away and away from you. Your senses are somewhat nullified. You are put down with the mere silhouette of a doctor towering over you , resembling a smear of blue moving further and further away until...you wake up. With absolutely no memory of whatever happened. You are now in a different room to the one you started in and your senses begin to kick in. That's it. Hours worth of surgery feels like a mere 5 minutes. Crazy.

But I really don’t- I felt so bad apparently I clocked him in the face pretty good- I guess I have better aim when half drugged up. Cause I can’t punch worth shit whilst awake that’s one of my experiences.

It literally feels like you were out a moment, I woke up two days later , tho , only scary thing was when they said they had a hard time waking me up , it makes me really sleep I guess lol . The only thing that bothers me is the feeling of being that high . I hate that like drugged out feeling lol but it’s absolutely necessary. That’s the worst part to me , the wooziness when you wake up . But I was glad to see I was still here. I was really hungry when I woke up lol I asked for food . They were like yep she’s doing fine !

      You don’t dream, once the anesthesia starts, you pretty much just go dark, next thing you know you are starting to wake up which you think that was quick but you were out like how ever long the surgery is. I get the sedation next week and they said you are very relaxed and not put all the way out. I’d rather have it that way, but not sure if it’s going to seem that quick or not.
