Removing a Grape from Downunder
I wished somebody told me a few things about going under, before I went er… under.
1. I will feel very obscenely nauseous at least two days after general anesthesia.
2. If I had been forewarned, I would have brought my favourite bottle of sniffie.
3. Plastics make me puke, even now. Because they smell of G.A. gas.
4. Right before they say “breath in deeply”, they give you three injections which put you in a sedative mood. 1st injection: muscle relaxed. 2nd injection: senses became dull (this is when the noise sounded like “wuhwuhwuh”). 3rd injection (a farking huge tube which alarmed me if not for injection 1 & 2): fog closes in.
As I am typing this, I feel nauseous, pseudo-puka.
5. When they woke me, a huge rush of noise filled my ears.
What’s the whole feeling like? Its exactly like taking a power nap. Deep short sleep, rudely woken.
6. If I ever had to go under again, I would be very very scared.
