re: First Surgery Tomorrow What to Expect?

Pre op area is cold. Ask for a warm blanket. They will bring one thats been heated up. Thats the shite!!

Do ask for anti nasua meds to be given with the IV.

Nothing to worry about. Enjoy the few days off of work.

As some of the others say, you will probably be nervous beforehand, so ask for some shite to calm you down if that is the case.

Expect them to wait until just before they start to put you out, as they don't want you to be under any longer than necessary. Once you go out, you can expect the sensation of waking up immediately with no notion of the time that has elapsed.

You won't hurt for several hours. If you start to hurt much when the locals wear off, go ahead and take a pain pill to get ahead of the pain...you don't want to be hurting too bad before you start to knock that pain back. However, if you aren't hurting, don't take the pain pills.

Also, agree that I would ask for something for nausea before hand, as you basically have a damn hangover from the anesthesia.

Don't sweat over this...by tomorrow at this time, you'll be done with it and be relaxing in your recliner.

The last time I go put under

Started waking up and my stomach was really hurting. I knew I needed to shite and do it with the quickness. I started calling for the nurse and ahe said she would help me in a minute. I told her we didn't have that long that I needed to go to the bathroom and now.

She said "okay" and brings me a porta toilet. I was like okay I can live with this please leave and let me go. Nope, you still have IV's in both arms these girls are going to make sure you don't bend your arms. I was like he'll naw. She said no choice, just go.

It was violent diarrhea and I'm hanging my head in shame as I felt so bad for these two cute nurses. This was only the beginning of my embarrassment. I asked if they could leave so I could clean myself up, NOPE, MrLarson, stand up. The head nurse tells me to lean over the bed while the two nurses hold my arms and she rips the sheet off the bed and wipes my arse with it.

I thought it couldn't get any worse when she pulls the curtains back and there sits my wife and sister in law.

I hope you don't experience anything like this.

Eagle on 18 at LaTour?



Not even if you hit from the red tees.

Is it possible to jolt when this happens? I feel like I will and guess that’s what I’m most worried about. That I may not doze off like they want and if I do then I may jolt when I get up.

They will poke fun at you as soon as they get you knocked out. Might have an orderly check out your stuff and take photos for the next Group party.

When I had my wisdom teeth removed, they knocked me out. It seemed like as soon as the oral surgeon hooked up the anesthesia, I was out. I didn’t say anything weird or anything after, other than feeling of my deadened lower lip and asking my Mom what it was.

When they start taking you back they'll ask you to start the countdown.

You'll make it to 8

Then you'll just start waking up. You won't jolt out of it, not at all.

When they scoped my knee they didn't put me under and I woke up during the surgery and it was strange but I grew up with the Dr and he talked to me for about 60 seconds and said he was almost done if I could handle the pain but I pussed out and they gave me another shot.

It wasn't anesthesia, some other type of shot.
