Question:

What does it feel like to be put under general anesthesia? Read on plz?

I am curious what it feels like right as your going out, is it like blacking out, fading away, etc... I am having anxiety over this and would like some answers from people who have experienced it!


Answers:

I've been under several times and for me it happens very quick. As soon as the IV is put in I fall asleep instantly. No fading out, no slowly falling asleep. Bam-1 second I'm talking to the nurse and then next thing I remember is waking up. I do get nauseous when I do come out of it. Never actually gotten sick, but for a couple hours you can feel queasy. It's a fairly common reaction and nothing to worry about. The anaethesiologist will go over all possible side effects and what you are likely to experience.
