general with a mask or just iv?

Posted by b!i.p. (aka starrynut) Jul 5 '12, 20:02

when I had a broken ankle screw removed, I thought it would be local. they put an iv in, just in case; and the in case happened when I wasn't numb enough or something. put me out for a little while with just iv, no gas.

Responses:

the surgeon said it would be a local, but the anesthesiologist stuck in an IV and went to town (no gas that I remember) nm - howie Jul 5, 20:08 2
- yah, that's what happened to me, too. not the best, but hopefully that's that for you now. -- nm - b!i.p. Jul 5, 20:18
- It's over now & you are fine. But damned if it don't sound like the went in for a missing sponge - Epiphany Jul 5, 20:13
