Hi, I do not want to scare anyone here, and I am sure this is unusual but I have had a lot of operations even before cancer, c-sections and stuff, I never remembered anything from the first relaxant and I confused confused am very groggy and takes me awhile to wake up. Well after this last one I can remember being held down on the table and someone was pushing a tube down my throat. I tried to get away or yell but could not, I heard a nurse say she something and that was it. Then I remember someone saying stuff about my blood pressure getting really high. This could have been in recovery and not even me, but the other was me and in the operating room. I had stitches taken out today and my Doctor is away at a conferance so I told the two residents who did my appointment. One had been in the operating room, he said he did not notice any problem but this may be before they came in. I will bring it up with my ENT next week. What could have happened?Has anyone ever experienced anything like this?I know I am not imagineing it, I have done this too many times to not know this was different. Do I forget it , or make a fuss?
