Hell yeah resistant to anesthesia bros. I always have to tell people to stick me again because the first time never takes. Like when I had to get stitches after slicing off the tip of my thumb. Does proper knife use in the home count as OSHA material?

Sorry to resurrect this so late, but I am super resistant to anesthesia. I woke up from general during minor surgery once and when I finally was able to utter some sounds the nurse heard and didn't do poo poo. gently caress her. I still remember having that loving surgery.

Fun fact: they gave me that memory drug that makes you forget poo poo for the last few hours at the end of the procedure, probably why they didn't knock me out again. My wife and I went home and watched a movie. That stupid drug made me forget all about the movie but not the actual surgery.

I'd probably rather die than have surgery and risk that again. And I work at a company that makes surgical tools.

If you were able to utter sounds you weren't under true general. True general involves shoving a tube in your trachea, or lodging a device in the back of your throat to assist you breathing. You remembering a bit is not unexpected, or unacceptable. You were just under heavy sedation.

Yes. If it was a truly minor surgery, they might have been doing "twilight anesthesia", which is not anesthesia as most people understand it. You're awake, they just roofie you with midazolam so you don't remember the surgery and use local/regional anesthesia for pain relief.

Who ever provided his anesthesia explained it shittily more than likely. I always tell people "I'm going to give you some good medications to keep you asleep and comfortable for this procedure, generally you shouldn't remember anything all, but there's a chance you might flutter your eyes for a second or two and then fall right back asleep once or twice during the procedure, and that's just because we have to balance between giving you enough medication to keep you asleep but not so much that you stop breathing, and we'd rather stay on the safe side"

Never had a patient complain. But anyway from the sounds of it homeboy here just had some minor poo poo with midazolam from a nurse like you said. Not a proper deep sedation from an anesthesia provider.

I see bicyclists tailgating cars and heavy vehicles all the time. Fixie brake or not, they're not going to out-brake a car so so I'm looking forward to seeing more of this:



Rear-ending a car is entirely avoidable if the bike has decent brakes, there's no excuse there. The spandex weekend warriors are the problem here.

Some OSHA bike schadenfreude- Copenhagen has the most bicycle commuters in the world next to Amsterdam. It's also illegal to turn right on a red light, which is often flouted. Occasionally during rush hour the police will lurk at a busy intersection and pull over flocks of cyclists. They literally have to stand in queue for their tickets.

That's how they do most every minor procedure. Like if you're getting a colonoscopy, they just roofie you with midazolam, which is like super IV Valium or Xanax. Then throw a little pain killer like fentanyl on top for some extra sedation.

No, you don't put your small child on a predator, no matter how well-trained, that has a series of reflexes that make it ridiculously easy to trigger a bite, roll, etc. There's been handlers that lost limbs because a drop of water/sweat touched a receptor on the wrong part of the snout for an otherwise docile gator.

At the very least the gator should have some tape around the snout. Then the only concern is it throwing the child off!

The average dog could murder your child before you could stop it, but that rarely gives anyone pause.
