    For me that was the easiest part of the whole process. One minute I was shifting onto the operating table and the next minute I was waking up in recovery.

    "Just let it go". Leave all the anesthesia concerns to the folks who are well educated within the field. They know how to sedate and how to "wake up". Rest easy, my friend.

    You have been giving some irresponsible and alarming information from professionals who should know better. First, your pain doctor. yes, an anesthesiologist BUT one who spends their time doing inje

I was scared, too. I think everyone is their first time under anesthesia. It’s nothing, though. One minute the surgeon, etc., were talking to me, the next minute I was waking up from what felt like the deepest, most peaceful sleep I’d ever had, and it was all over.

    I was very nervous too, but I needed the surgery to be healthy! I don't agree with anesthesia and I told them that . I trusted my doctors and I woke up. They said I had a hard time waking up, and I felt drowsy and nauseous until the next day! Now I'm 8 weeks out and feel great , 40 lbs down!
