How was your experience going under the knife, if any?

[Nazgol]

Mine was fascinating, first time in my life. Had 2 actually. Everything was fascinating, all aspects such as anthesia and getting to see the OR and instruments. Can't say wasn't nervewracking! My anxiety definitely went up.

But I guess if I had to again, I wouldn't be as nervous. Except I HATE getting poked at with needles!💉

Tonsils and adenoids removed, went fine.


3 brain surgeries, went fine but recovery was hell.


Then after that I discovered that the brutal procedure called the wada test I had underwent, in which the anesthesia failed, gave me severe ptsd.


Now I can’t even have blood taken without them having to restrain or sedate me because I black out.

I was 5 so I don’t recall a lot. I just remember going to a waiting room with a drink and I guess whatever was in that drink was a sedative because I don’t remember anything after that 😅 I do remember waking up in a bright room and the nurse was giving me a lot of little stickers and she stayed with me until I woke fully.

my experience going into the OR is freezing my ass off but thank God for the heated blankets

[Tim-loves-it]

I was put to sleep for 4 days.

Best rest I have ever had.

[Nazgol]

Why so long

[Nikki1989]

Emergency surgery.

[Nazgol]

For?

[Nikki1989]

I'd rather not discuss that here.

[Nazgol]

Ok, sure

[TrueConfection]

The surgery saved my life, but the anesthesia almost killed me.

[Jennz6]

Breast implants, it was ok

[Z1pTD]

Neverrrr againnnn

[Z1pTD]

I could still feel the pressure of their instruments and I could hear them cuttj v through me. Not where it's at.

[Nazgol]

That shouldn't have happened! Maybe u woke up under anthesia?

[Z1pTD]

Yeah my guess is something like that lol

[Nazgol]

What was it for? Did u tell them after?

[Z1pTD]

That's private info :) No lol I didn't. Hindsight 20/20 I probably should've.

[Nazgol]

Yeah, definitely!😨😨

[Z1pTD]

I don't know I mean they were being nice tho and didn't charge us for it bc $$

[Nazgol]

[Z1pTD]
