As long as I live I'll never forget when I was going in for surgery requiring anesthesia and the anesthesiologist walks in and hollers "Oh Nooooo. Not a redhead. I hate working with redheads." And to top it all off….it's the only time I've been put under that the experience for me was horrible. Nightmares like I've never encountered that required professional counseling to adjust to this side of life after that horrendous experience. Needless to say I complained to the doc who chose this anesthesiologist in hopes he'd not use them anymore. Never encountered any type of issue the other couple times I've been put under.
I was put on Elavil years ago for migraines. I donāt think itās an SSRI (not sure the difference exactly) but I know it increases serotonin levels and I also know that as someone who had never suffered genuine depression before (or since), Iāve never lost the will to live more than I did in the time I was taking that medication. It was to the point where I didnāt care about anything at all and thank God for my friends who recognized the signs and helped me realize it was the medicine. I will never ever take anything like that again.
Happy new year man, I learned so much about SSRIās that was awesome and amazing, I never lied to my anesthesiologist about my health! I really enjoy donating to the anesthesiologist Foundation, since it was hard for me to go to college to be a anesthesiologist because of my cerebral palsy! You rock man
Dr. Kaveh, I had general anesthesia on Friday of this past week and it was so easy. I was really nervous as this was my first time to ever have any kind of anesthesia/sedation.
The CRNA gave me my āmargaritaā (versed) in my IV. I just laid my head back to try to relax as they rolled the bed down the hallway. We went through these double doors at the end of the hall and stopped for what seemed like a few seconds. I remember the circulating nurse just looking at me.
I donāt know what they did or what happened after that point. I woke up in PACU 4 hours later.
Did the versed make me go to sleep? Or did it just wipe out any memories? Did they possibly give me propofol at that point? They never had me breath through the mask that I know of.
The PACU nurse was really nice and helped me get pain under control afterwards. The more I woke up, the more pain I was in. She maxed me out on pain meds and made me really nauseous. Luckily I had some zig ran back at my hotel to help.
For some reason, hydrocodone make me really hyper. My doctor and nurses told me I would probably sleep the rest of the afternoon, but once they gave me the Loritab, I was bouncing off the walls. Why does it have this effect on me?
I don't understand WHY anyone would want to have a psychedelic experience? Will someone please help me out with that? It sounds terrifying. Is it supposed to help with depression? I'm so lost.
I so love that you reaffirm in every video that each of us have so much more power over both our health and our outcomes when undergoing surgeries with anesthesia than most of us realize. I am so grateful for the education that you are providing and the gifts you are sharing with all of us that we already have the means to unlock! God Bless, and Hereās to a Happy and Healthy New Year!
Thanks for always making videos I wish I did not miss your live streams. But I am an Texas I don' t know when you do your videos CA. Thanks for your info on meeting with the anesthesiologist one on one. My orthro doc. is good friends with his anesthesiologist and willing to meet me in person before total shoulder reversal arthroplasty and he also knows that I might have FND. But I am scared but I am going to do it.
not me forgetting DMT is illegal š¤£ I want to have a safe psychedelic experience SO bad. I've glimpsed the emptiness when the self should be during meditation but I want more.
Wow! People need to tell the anesthesiologist everything! They are our world in there and our lives are in their hands. š«¶š¼
Doc, is it possible for the patient to push their own Propofol before surgery?
Cant wait to see your next livestream:)
What happened to the doctor that was prescribing propofol to Michael Jackson?

I wish a certain doctor knew that, about balancing risk and benefit, with zolpidem rx. Cutting the rx in half has been so disruptive to sleep.

I wonder if the person remembered twitching and moving.
Wow!
Happy New Year Doctor!!
