I’m going under general for the first time in two weeks for a brain biopsy.
Explain it and how it’s safe.
I’m not scared of the biopsy, just the general.
Is that normal?

Anesthesiologist here. Patients tell me all the time that they’re more scared about the anesthesia than the procedure. I still don’t understand why, but it’s a very common feeling. We take care of a lot of very sick people every day, and the vast majority (>99%) make it through just fine. Happy to answer any specific questions you have, but don’t want to be redundant as a lot have answered already.
