i been through several operation which i was injected w/anesthesia or maybe valium,that made me sleep and unconcious of they had done to me...when i was in my school days i had a very sharp memory...but now i feel i miss a lot of things i wanted to do..sometimes i think of getting something inside my room and when i'm there i don't remember why i am there...my friends told me that's the effect of anesthesia,is it true?
Answer:Anesthesia can cause all sorts of problems...
Hair loss, memory loss, fatigue, improper circulation, respiratory problems... lots of things.
Try proving it though... You basically can't. A bad anesthesiologist can mess you up worse than a bad plastic surgeon... Just more subtly.
everyone reacts different to anesthesia, you are told not to make any important decisions for 24 hour after receiving it.
i dont think so
No, anaesthetic agents will not leave you in a state of chronic forgetfulness. If you are experiencing same, there is a different cause. Go back to your doctor and discuss the problem.
No, it has nothing to do with the anesthesia. Unless you had it last night---which I doubt. You are just getting older like the rest of us.
