General Anesthesia

766 views

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?

I just had a colonoscopy last month. One minute I was greeting the doctor, the next I was waking up. It was that fast.

You may have some nausea after you wake up. That’s normal. The anesthesiologist will ask you if you have any adverse reactions to anesthesia. Since this is your first time you may not know. But next time, you can tell them and they can take steps to alleviate it. They put something in my sleepy juice so I don’t throw up anymore.
