I woke up in the middle of my last 'scoping and watched the monitor for awhile 'til they dialed up the gas. Freaky - but a testimonial to that gawdawful prep, I was squeaky clean inside :cool:
TMI.

At my first scoping, they said I may or may not fall asleep, and could watch the procedure on the monitor if awake. I thought cool - I'll watch. Next thing I knew, I was waking up in a recliner.

Another time, I woke up near the end of a Cardio Ablation procedure. This is a catheter procedure where they burn spots inside the heart to try to block electrical signals causing irregular heart rhythms. Told them I was awake, and was told they were almost finished, and that I should just lie very still. Got three or four burn shots while awake, and it felt like I was getting shot in slow motion. Procedure worked for a few years, and then the irregular rhythm returned. Luckily it's not too bad, and I seldom have any noticeable symptoms.

Brew on :mug:

I woke up as well, saw the back of the anesthetist and the monitor but in a few seconds he turned around and gave me more. Interesting times.
 
Ah, reminiscent of wherever we went nuts here (tru beer maybe) on "didn't have WY1469 so I scraped some dirt up from the back yard"



You gotta think the gastroenterologists have scads of stories to tell of the things we say and do when entering or leaving the anesthetized state.
not anesthetized, but the wife had a scary vomiting blood incident that sent all her vitals crashing, including blood sugar (one bint nurse remarked, in earshot of my very concerned wife "I've never seen blood sugar that low, even on a cadaver!") the symptoms of which are very similar to being inebriated.
she wouldn't keep the thermometer under her tongue, so they had to take her temp other ways.

when her stats started improving, so did her "drunkenness" but she was still a bit out of it when they told her they were inserting a catheter.

"Okay, but stay out of my ass"

my anesthesia story is, before my 3xCABG, I told the staff "I'll say this to avoid any embarrassment in the recovery room... yes, I do love you all, want to marry each of you & bear all your children"

Our local township has an old fashioned auto repair shop on the outskirts as you’re leaving town that’s been there for years. At least longer than the 37 years we’ve lived here.

The sign says, “Rudy’s Car Repair & Cold Beer.” Gives all new meaning to the term Garage Beer.

Never have gotten work done there.
