Things you don’t want to hear during surgery:
…”Everyone stand back, I think I lost my contact lens.”
…”Someone call the janitor, we’re going to need a mop and a bucket.”
…”Sterile, schmerile; at lest the operating-room floor is clean.”
…”Hey, that’s cool! Now can you make his leg twitch?”
…”Nurse, did this patient sign the organ-donor card?”

I can’t help but comment, if I’m hearing any of these, then the anesthesiologist must of messed up, big time…

You got a point there but it also depends on the type of surgery. My friend who had a c-section said she’s conscious throughout the procedure and there’s no sensation from waist down 😦

True – I had a string of surgeries in a short period of time and the last one, the ‘relaxant’ they give you in pre-op wore off and I awoke in the surgery room – what an eerie place –
I was looking around and trying to get my bearings – when I heard, “Oh- – look who’s awake!”
Then they ran the formula through, which, undiluted, makes your arm feel like it’s on fire and I went under cussing a blue streak –
At my post-op appointment, my surgeon said they delayed surgery, because one of the nurses was laughing so hard, she cried and he told me,
“But it’s okay – I told them you were married to a sailor.”

Ouch! Hope you’re in better health now. A surgery room is a place everyone wants to avoid 😦

Yes, I just quit going to the doctor when I realized that I didn’t have very many non-essential parts left in my torso – LOL 🙂
Seriously, I had a great doctor and it was just a cluster of bad luck to have had so many so close together – but I do understand why they give you the pre-op dose – surgery rooms induce one word thoughts, like “Frankenstein” – 😀

Yes – a stint in nursing homes was enough for me – 😀

Only ever had one op… it was only a simple procedure but it took me days to get over the anaesthetic, it totally floored me! 😦
