My brother woke up from anesthesia after anappendix surgery while he was rolled into another room. Me and my mum walking on his side. He shouts "woah this car is really fast" and moved on to make childish "car noises" with his tongue until they stopped in the other room. He made a "break noise" and said "that was the best racetrack I ever drove" and felt back to sleep. The two nurses (one male, one female) couldnt hold their laughter. A minute later the female nure assured us that its pretty normal that people fantasize after surgery but that they never saw such a unique reaction. Still gets me a good laught even though its about 10 years ago.
My grandma told me she woke up in the middle of surgery and asked the doctor "what are you doing?" to which the doctor replied "I'm fixing your foot" and she just said "oh ok".
i once proposed to a nurse when I was coming out of anesthesia lmao. Didn't have glasses on so I couldn't really see her, but I kept telling her she was 'so beautiful' and asked if she wanted to get married. I'm pretty sure her reply was "honey, I've tried marriage, never again." Then later once I had my glasses on and was a little more awake, I kept telling my mom about how much I loved sprite (they gave me sprite and graham crackers to settle my stomach after surgery), like raving about it. One of the nurses gave me a giant cup filled with it to bring home, and that's honestly still one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me
When I was going under, they told me they’d take me in a room with a big, circular light. I saw the light and said “WOW that is BIG. And circly. That’s the most circle I’ve ever seen. Then my memory goes blank”
NootPlaysStuff :/ When I got foot surgery we were driving home and I spotted the name Bob from a distance. I then proceeded to giggle for half an hour because I thought the name sounded silly.
I wonder if temporarily switching languages after anesthesia is common. I woke up from surgery a few years ago speaking fluent Spanish (learned in college, but hadn't used in ages). A second surgery this year had a similar effect, but this time I woke up using sign langauge to say, "Hi," and ask repeatedly for water. I distinctly remember a nurse saying, "What is she doing? Is that sign? Do we have anyone on the floor that knows sign language?" So.... Every language I have tried to learn is in memory somewhere, but mainly unaccesible unless I am waking from anaesthesia. I highly suspect if I ever go under again, I may come around speaking Anglo-Saxan due to my time reading old manuscripts for history courses....
@@ShinigamiTwin possibly normal, at least they said to me that, hearing someone speak other language was not the weirdest thing they have seen or heard
I had a doctor with the same last name as mine. The doctor told me after surgery that I told the nurses that the doctor was the "black sheep" of my family. My doctor is black and I'm white... Doctor thought it was hilarious
@Blair not related but i gotta tell someone... 0:55 , i read this exect same story on reddit by the patient here is the link: ruclips.net/video/2ghOEzmv8DY/видео.html Timestamp: 1:04
My dad woke up from anesthesia and asked the doctor how soon after he will be able to play the piano. Doc said he should be fine after a couple days. Dad said good, I've never been able to play before.
I gave birth to my first son, but the placenta didn't get out. So the doctor explains to me they have to put me under completly and get all of it manually out, so that I do not get septic shock. After the procedure, one nurse was by my side when I woke up. I said, with my eyes closed: "Doctor, I didn't feel a thing. I hope you're not like this at home. Your poor wife..." and fell asleep again. Oh and allso, the first words I utterd to my newborn son were: " My what big balls you have" to wich everyone started smirking and barely holding it together. But I was genuinly worried so I asked "No really, look at them! Is that normal?!?" And that's when the people around me lost it 😂😂😂
I insisted after my wisdom teeth surgery to go with dad to get the meds. "I feel fantastic idk what you're on about" So dad had to sit there and die inside while standing in line at the pharmacy with me, mouth full of VERY BLOODY cotton, and looking at everyone going "I got my wisdom teeth out lol how are you"
I was waking up from surgery on my testicle and they were pulling out my breathing tube. Something in my brain said "dont let them take!" And I remember biting down hard and growling not wanting to give up the tube. The doctor leaned down to reassure me and according to my father I punched the doctor in the face and then passed out. Woke up with a vague memory of fighting for the tube and then being told what happened. Apparently in my medical file it says "holds on to breathing tube" to worn future doctors. Apparently it's a very dangerous natural reaction some people have.
This is why we typically had restraints on intubated patients. Later as a patient vented for a week, I had them too after apparently trying to extubate myself. No memory of it whatsoever.
Damn gladly I’m not violent on waking up from anesthetics someone could be trying to strangle me or have a gun to my head I’d just smile and make a joke
The very first time i had surgery for anything was when i was eleven, and it was for dental repair. Let me tell you, being in medical coma for four hours and then waking up with no idea what happened or where you are for the first time ever is the most disorienting and terrifying feeling. I remember having to drink this weird liquid that tasted ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS, and having the hiccups. Then just before i fell asleep i remember shouting "MOM, IF I DON'T MAKE IT, TELL THE SHAREHOLDERS THAT THE GOLD IS UNDERNEATH THE STOVE!"
I had it when i was 6 for gallstones... not really terrifying because i remembered almost right away where i was. But my firat words i think were "I don't feel so good" and then i threw up.
I was seven when I had my first surgery, but I never got that. The girl next to me got that, and it really *FREAKED* me out. I now have phantaphobia (fear of hallucinations and drugs)
0:30 wait a minute... so you’re telling me. THE PATIENT AND THE SURGEON HAS REDDIT AND POSTED WHAT HAPPENED? so somebody from reddit said the same thing but, from their point of view from them as a patient. And then the surgeon posted- you get the idea *BUT STILL!*
When I had my gallbladder removed (I had gallstones at age 18 somehow), after I woke up, I kept telling my mom, who was in the room (not the OR) with me how much I love her. Prior, I’d been worried that the anesthesia would make me lose control and just start cursing, but all that came out of my mouth was “I love you, Mom” a bunch of times.
Maybe not the greatest story, but my sister and I got our wisdom teeth out on the same day. I'm generally a very affectionate person, and coming out of the anesthesia it was absolutely ridiculous. I was trying to give hugs to everyone and stuff like that. My sister is very insistent on being independent, so coming out of the surgery, she attempted to walk herself out while repeating "I can do it" again and again. Lo and behold, she walks herself directly into a wall. They tell her she needs to be in a wheelchair out to the car because it's standard procedure, but she keeps saying "I can do it." They tell her again that they have to and she says "Okay......... No, wait.... I can do it" This continued for a little while. It was great.
Funny...I had all four out and was able to walk fine afterward. (Came to in a reclining chair, was told to wait a while and then asked if I could stand. I was careful of course, and managed to walk all the way to the car.)
I wish the dude at 4:25 had said "Wait, what do you mean where are my legs?" Even though he knew and kept playing it off as though he had no legs and they had done surgery on the wrong dude
So I had to have a retina surgery, and when I woke up from being put under, I apparently went to attention and saluted the doctor while he was wheeling me, I kept calling him Lieutenant and when he went to move me i told him he had soft hands and that I didnt want a fraternization case. My shipmate who saw this all was loosing her shit. I dont remember any of this, but its believable since I always say stupid shit when I'm half up
I had eye surgery and when i was coming out i asked for crackers dipped in popsicles and ice cream. Crazy thing is they actually gave it to me. It was pretty good
I remember that i was having surgery on my underarm and I was put under anesthesia. I woke up and felt incredible pain but I couldn’t move and could only talk with great effort. There was a nurse next to me looking at something. I don’t know if this was before during or after the surgery but I gathered all my strength to mutter a single word “hurts”. Thankfully she heard me and put me back under.
When I got my wisdom teeth out, I apparently stood up after the procedure was done, addressed the doctor as 'sir', and proceeded to salute him and march out the door, instructing the nurse assisting me on proper roll-step form all the way to the car.
I’m so confused, I got 4 wisdom teeth extracted, was only given local anesthesia and when home on the bus. How do people have so many weird things happen after the get their wisdom teeth extracted
I just remember after having surgery just asking what clock is as soon as I woke up. I think I didnt do anything interesting according to my parents at least.
My Grandfather went under for heart surgery and when he woke up he heard one of the nurses say something about indians. My mother and grandmother were there soon after and he spent the next two hours flipping out and trying to tell my mother and grandmother that nurses were trying to turn him into an Indian. They laughed hysterically and my mom came home in a good mood that night and told me all about it. I had stayed home as I hate hospitals and frankly don't want to relive a previous situation with my father (he passed away).
0:52 I kid you not. I just watched a video where it was the patient version of this (what is the funniest thing you can say before anesthesia, or something like that) and it was the patient's version of this. Lolol
Oh For The Love of Reading I watched that one and clicked on this one right after. I’ve been looking for a comment of someone else who also watched that one😂
I'm a very cautious and thoughtful person and apparently this never stops even if i'm out of mind. Was told that after i had gastroscopy and was waking up i was saying to a nurse that they have to sterilize the instruments because i didn't want other patient's to get the stomach ache i was having
During an internship at a hospital I was in the recovery room with a nurse who was showing me around. So we’re in one of the recovery rooms and this lady who is just starting to wake up from anesthesia says out loud. “Oh my god my nipples are sooo hard...” I have to leave the room and in the hallway I burst out laughing. The nurse later told me that that wasn’t even the funniest one she had heard.
When I woke up after my Spinal Fusion, I was so drugged that I started to panick imidiently after awaking because i couldn't see. *I can't see! Am i blind? I want to see! Why can't i see?!* Ect ect. The nurse finally heard my muttered panicking, and (helpfully) told me to open my eyes. I did, saw that i wasn't blind, and went back to sleep. Bonus! The first words i said too my parents post op was: "Get out of my way you shorties!" (They were in the doorway, and preventing the nurse from wheeling me into the room, and i was just sitting in the hall, under those freaking eyeball scorching lights.) I also snatched 3 pudding cups from the nurse, and proceded to eat them all. Like in 10 minutes. I was just shoveling it in my mouth. Moral of the story: Don't give me drugs.
@@astickytwiggie2351 I also ordered Donuts on the way back home, forgot on the drive back, and got home and was like *DONUTS!!!?? Where'd those come from!?* I ordered *24* donuts, and forgot in the span of 15 minutes.
@tcbobb16 Yikes! I was lucky enough to not have a breathing tube, i just had an Iv. (Which i almost ripped out when i woke up at 4am needing to pee and just stared walking..... Mom had to stear me back to the bed, and make me sit down.) Why did you need a breathing tube?
@@astickytwiggie2351 Stupidly Hilarious is exactly what my Dad said when i came back home, and forgot the word puppy, and prosided to call my doggo a Barking Kitten. No offence taken! :P
I got my tonsils out when I was eight (basically in and out surgery) and based on what my mom has told me, I woke up and saw sponge Bob playing on the tv and immediately started sobbing. Apparently sponge Bob was scary and all I wanted to do was go home so he couldn’t get me. I literally refused the jello the tried to give me to eat and the second they took me off the monitors tried to stand up and walk out by myself. All because sponge bob was playing.
On Christmas AM of 2015, I had a freak seizure & drove into the center of a roundabout. Thankfully I didn't hurt anybody else but I broke my legs & 7 vertebrae. Needless to say I had a lot of surgery especially after I got flesh eating MRSA. They did a lot but eventually told me tgeyf to amputate. So they drew a line where they would cut and I went into surgery. When I woke up in the recovery room I was quite sad but then lifted my blanket and saw both legs. Somehow then I convinced myself theyd switched my legs. I started yelling at the staff for having played such a cuel joke. In my hazy confusion I thought it was one elaborate prank. It took them a while to explain that in the OR there happened to be a plastic surgeon who figured out a way to save my leg with bone & skin grafting. I couldn't stop apologizing for how mean I had been when I thought my legs were switched. And I couldn't stop thanking them for saving my leg.
The only story I had close to this is when they were about to put me under for the operation and I asked "Who's that guy in the corner with the black robe and scythe?"
@Wes Prang Facial wounds tend to bleed a shite ton. I've sucessfully broken an eyebrow and the people around me were mortified due to the literal waterfall of blood, gushing down my cheek. It took several minutes before someone got themselves together and told me my entire right side of my face was covered in blood. Shocked me like hell, cause all I had felt was extra warmth on my face and an increasingly wet shirt and I was on my way inside to figure out what the hell was going on, since the wound itself was just switching between being numb and feeling like a normal, unbroken eyebrow. TL:DR. There's a lot of blood vessels in the face and if they rupture, it'll quickly start to look like a horror movie and that will naturally leave everyone around you mortified. I don't think the same applies to hands, but idk
When I was young my second oldest brother pushed me into a night stand and I hit the corner of it and split my head open. It didn't hurt, but damn was there a lot of blood. I remember my mom holding my head under the sink and all I could see wad blood. Of course, he never got punished for it. Me and my oldest brother are the only ones that get punished, neither my sister or my second oldest. I have a feeling that that's a huge factor they're both massive dicks.
When I got my wisdom teeth out, I woke up shouting, I need to pee, because I needed to pee. After releasing myself, I was taken too my mother, and a family friend. I spoke slowly and in a deep groggy voice. I was given a cup.of water and spilt it on myself. I started laughing and announced "I baptized myself Catholic"
My brother in law had a colonoscopy and when he was blitzed out of his mind, he wrote "thanks for fixing my butt" on a white board in the room he was in.
I was hospitalised in 2014 and had a lot of diagnostic tests done during my four month stay which required anesthesia (spinal tap, bone marrow, etc) so I have a lot of stories. The best one, I think, was when I woke up from being unconcious and was convinced I was Queen Victoria.
Okay here goes... I was under anaesthetic for a spinal tap that was being done to try and find out why my body was basically dying and everything went pretty normal. I wasn’t aware of that much at the time because of various medication I was on (morphine, etc) so I don’t remember much of what happened but my Mother delights in telling me about the batshit crazy stuff I would do and I have enough vague memories to actually recall some of my thoughts/feelings when the stuff was going down. Anyway, everything went well and I came out of anaesthetic without any issues...until a nurse asked me my name. Apparently without missing a beat I declared that I was Queen Victoria which I then fully maintained as I was pushed by a porter back to the wards. I was riding in a massive hospital wheelchair because they only had the super wide ones left which for some reason meant in my mind that I was in some kind of expensive carriage -.- My Mother told me I was doing the ridiculous little royal wave and talking in a weird voice saying stuff like “Wonderful to see my loyal subjects on this blessed day...” Eventually I stopped thinking I was Queen Victoria but I had many *many* other hallucinations because of different medications including anaesthetic.
Had surgery done fairly recently, after waking up from anesthesia the first thing I said to the nurses and staff waking/checking me up was "Are we done? Oh my god you all are such angels." I also apparently told the man in charge of performing the anesthesia who also was alongside the staff that I "didn't dream of Hawaii but instead dreamed of getting paid a big sum of money by a client and that was equally gucci" while doing the ok hand motion at him.
When I got my wisdom teeth out, it was in a hospital bc they were impacted. When I come to, nurse asks my name to make sure I’m not brain dead. I say “I’m a lesbian”. My parents were there and I was previously closeted. I came out after surgery with a dad joke. EDIT: wow that's a lotta likes
When I came out of surgery, I found it very important that the nurses know how comfortable the bed was. I was so transfixed by the comfort of that bed. When they went to leave, calling out "I think this is the most comfortable I've been in a bed in my life!" before she escaped beyond the curtains. I guess I felt they could use some reassurance that the hospital had chosen their furnishings well. Always acknowledge good work.
I was put under to have my gallbladder removed and as i started getting drowsy, I could hear the nurses doing a count of all their tools for the surgery. The last thing i remember is telling them to make sure they do a count when they're done. I ended up going back later for severe pain from the surgery (pushed myself a little too hard) and when I was being admitted into the hospital I jokingly said "You should call the surgeon and ask him if he lost a watch"
When my bf woke up after having his wisdom teeth removed he complained for over an hour that he didn't have a chin and didn't know where it went. It was numb thanks to the meds.
Moon Flight yep. it feels like a void that should hurt, but doesn’t. And it’s so difficult to feel any food in your mouth and swallow it it’s almost not worth trying to eat for that first day. And then, eventually, the pain does come. And you have a prescription to keep the pain mostly away.
When I dislocated my knee last summer, both the paramedics and ER had to put me on a lot of drugs. I had about four to five does of fentanyl ( a narcotic to treat severe pain ), a lot of nausea meds too. When I got to the ER they told me they had to put me to sleep to put my knee back in place and they gave me a strong dose of anti anxiety meds then a dose of ketamine. When I woke up, my two friends were waiting for me in the room. I really struggled to open my eyes for five minutes so I just talked with my eyes closed. When I opened them and saw my friends I was shocked to see them standing there. Then I looked at my best friend and said “Wow. You’re still ugly.”
Dylan Beattie I did that, needed full leg brace for a month and pt. Hurt like frick. Worst injury I’ve ever had, thank goodness I never needed surgery though.
KwolteKublai * Bruh idk but it was definitely fentanyl and not morphine because there was fentanyl on my outrageous hospital bill. And when I said put to sleep, it was just a knockout. I was out for maybe 7 minutes at most.
Lol I was about to go under anesthesia. I started getting loopy and was trying to keep a straight face and was like doc, can I get another? Dr: No. Me: ok doc, I trust ya. Turns out I was wearing a s*it eating grin the whole time, head was waving back and forth and I'd pulled the hair net down over my face. And everything I said after "Doc, can I..." Was just a babble of gibberish.
When I was 4 I had my tonsils removed when apparently as soon as I woke up I screamed "I WANT YOGURT!!!" and passed out again only to be woken up again by a nurse with a bowl of yogurt. I HATED yogurt so I still don't know why I wanted it and my mom forced me to eat it to be polite.
That's the equivalent of me shouting "I want green-beans!" after waking up. I'm still a very picky eater... Also, why would a parent force their child to eat something they know they hate after the child endured a surgery?! Anesthesia is bad enough...
Patient had heart arrhythmia called WPW, which can cause a rapid resting heart rate (tachycardia), so the ER staff were doing an oblation, which is where they disable part of the heart so that that part of the heart muscle doesn't contract too soon. During the procedure, the patient is anesthetized before a catheter is inserted into the patient's femoral artery, a probe is sent up that blood vessel to the heart, and part of the heart is "burned." Just before the doctor was to shock the patient's heart to kill that part of the muscle tissue, he asked, "how is the patient doing under anesthesia?" "Alert and responsive, but in no pain," came the answer in a (to him) unfamiliar voice. "Who said that?" asked the doctor. "I did. Your patient," I said. "Oh, well THAT's got to change." "Yes, sir," said the anesthetist. And I was out.
Had a cousin that went in to surgery, when she woke up she looked dead into my eyes and said, "Do I still have...my balls?" we tease her a lot to this day.
When I was 5 my brother who is 10 years older than me got his wisdom teeth removed. My brother who can’t stand me wanting to hang out with him was balling his eyes out as he was waking up from surgery and saying how much he loved me repeatedly and clinging onto me as he was wheeled to the car.
I remember when I went under I can change my voice really well to all diffrent ranges was told by mother that when I was coming to I sat up really quick and a very deep voice looked at the doctor and said God has forsaken you all your souls belong to me then flopped back apparently the doctor was really freaked out
Cheers doggo! Also, when I was 18 I went in to have sergery on my foot. I don't remember much, but was told after that when the nurse was asking me to move my limbs, I kept moving the wrong ones. Like she would ask me to move my left hand, and my foot would wiggle instead. Was also jokingly asked by my mom if I had a bf. She said I turned expectantly and stared at the wall for 5 seconds silently. Then turned to her and said "no."
Here is a story for you.. a patient was recovering from a three day long anesthesia as his lungs couldn’t function after he drowned in the sea.. First thing he did when he woke up was to shake his salt shaker very violently and nut multiple times in his garms... every time he came, he shouted out a name.. He fell back asleep and we changed him while he was out of it after a quick dry bath.. When his family came to visit.. we got to know that he nutted out while screaming his sisters names.. they were three
Had my wisdom teeth removed (only three because there wasn't a fourth in my mouth). I remember telling my surgeon that I was a wolf (Native American zodiac is a wolf) and I proceeded to freaking howl as he helped me to my mother's car. So, I was howling the entire time down the hallway to outside...
I was 13 at the time and had to have nose surgery (can’t remember what for), but when I woke up I was already crying. I wasn’t in any pain but I just couldn’t stop crying, when the nurse came in she told me that if I didn’t stop crying that she wouldn’t allow me to see my mother. Apparently my mother overheard this and as we were leaving the hospital, said she was rather pissed off at the nurse.
When I woke up, I was rambling on about the Sims 4, apparently. Telling the nurse "Yeah, I have a sim that's a nurse too, but I'm still trying to get promoted."
I was awake for my Wisdom teeth removal. Totally out of it though. My dentist’s phone went off and I yelled at him the entire time that he needs to answer it. Someone could be dying😂😂😂😂
Happened to me, only learned about it after the fact. Got my Wisdom Teeth pulled, got wheeled out on a wheel chair, was helped to stand up. The car door was opened for me, and I was told to sit down in the car. I face-planted straight into the side of the car. Not so much as a grunt out of me. I was at home when I fully woke up, with dried blood under my nose wondering where it came from.
What the heck? I didn't get anesthesia when my wisdom teeth were pulled. He just gave me a shot a shot in the gums with some sort of numbing agent and went to town with a pair of pliers. Now I don't have a fun anesthesia story
@@ghostspore3163 Probably because you drank water or something beforehand. General anesthesia cannot be administered unless the patient has fasted for a full 24 hours prior, including water. Otherwise, you have to make do with local anesthesia which is cheaper but less enjoyable.
I had surgery a month ago and when I woke up I was talking in this weirdly high pitched voice and asked everyone I came across "are you okay?? Are you good?? Is everything alright??" Including the doctor, both of the nurses, and of course my parents... My dad still hasn't let me live it down
Some favorites for me: 1. Dose of fentanyl before surgery, immediately high as a kite, say to my surgeon: "if this is why people do drugs, i can get behind this" 2. Woke up from another surgery and was talking gibberish abt random stuff, then out of no where called the nurse a b**ch and then started crying bc i felt bad 3. Woke up and asked my mom what time it was every 30 seconds and once she got annoyed i cried bc i felt bad. I cry every time i wake up 4. I was getting a chest tube in, gave me some stuff for being anxious and a local anesthetic, told them "im still anxious as hell, so if you mess up im suing you"
Last year I went into cardiac arrest while in the E.R. and was unconscious for about four days in the ICU. I woke up with them removing a tube from my mouth and the first words out of my mouth were "this isn't what deepthroating is supposed to feel like". I don't remember saying it but the doctor, my nurse, and my best friend and her husband all confirm that's what I said.
My grandma was in the hospital because of fever! A phone on the other side of the place rings! She talks to her hand for 10 minutes thinking it's my mom!
All I remember from my wisdom teeth removal is asking the nurse if she had a boyfriend. I asked in english - I live in germany. Somehow I even managed to recognize her when she came checking on me after, she seemed flattered lol. Also told me that I spoke in a mish mash of english and german during the whole procedure
I had my wisdom teeth taken out all at once and I remember waking up, asking if I was done, then getting up and leaving the building. I then drove home completely "sober". They called apparently very worried thinking I should have been very loopy at the time
After i got my appendix removed, they were wheeling me on the bed back to my room and i just sat straight up and started singing a whole new world from Aladdin and they had to force me back down onto the bed before i hurt myself
I partially woke up during the removal of my wisdom teeth, I was able to move the lower half of my right arm so I was slapping the dentist until they figured out that I was awake lmao. Then they did something and I was out for the rest of it. Woke up totally awake and aware, never been more disappointed in something.
Did ya know that chloroform and other chemicals with anestheological properties were used in low doses as a truth serum around the time of the cold war
4:29 Waking up, still loopy from anesthesia, to see one of the medical professionals frantically looking for your legs. I can only imagine the confused terror that would have ensued if he hadn't realized what was going on.
I had a surgery removing a windsock-shaped piece of tissue that was causing Hydronephrosis in my left kidney. Woke up from anesthesia earlier than expected, I still had the anesthesia mask on! My not conscious self noticed that there was something on my face, and decided to claw at it (and I had long, sharp nails) and when I had fully awaken shortly after, I immediately asked the doctor “Why do my eyes hurt so much?” I scratched them really bad while drugged up...
Once when I was out of it I was told suddenly I sat up right and did the Adams family clicking thing because I said I thought I could hear the song playing, and then went back to sleep 😂
I remember in freshman year, my friend came into school during last period to get her homework from the day. She told the class she had her wisdom tooth pulled, and then proceeded to do a full on pterodactyl roar, saying she was a dinosaur. Then she left and I almost cried
When I woke up there was a dude next to me telling a nurse “I wouldn’t be telling you all of this if I wasn’t loopy on meds”. He then went on to talk about how he worked for an Air Force base that launched rockets for nasa and spaceX. Wish I could’ve heard what he said...
After I got my colonoscopy I woke up in a small puddle of diluted blood that had dripped from my IV because I had scratched at it while I was sleeping. So I woke up saw that puddle and thought to myself „Oh great“ and went back to sleep. Then after about 5 minuets I wake up again and notice the puddle had gotten a bit bigger and suddenly a nurse came in and took out my IV. Only after cleaning the now slightly congealed blood off my arm she noticed the blood puddle and the blood that had dripped on my sweatshirt and she just said „well... that wasn’t supposed to happen...“
Similar thing happened to me when I was around 10. I frequented hospitals as a kid due to a neurological problem. The docs always had trouble finding a spot to prick so they can put in the IV catheter. It ended up being on my ankle. Now, I move around a lot in my sleep. We had temperature checks every morning at like 6-7am. Nurse comes into the room, takes off my blanket and sees this enormous pool of blood under the sheets. I had apparently kicked the catheter off in my sleep and the needle fucked up my foot. Blood. Everywhere. We just stared at each other in complete silence.
i had 2 operations and after both i yanked out my IV and turned around... both times woke up wet from one side with saline and mildly damp with mostly dried blood from the other *shrug*
My friend had an incident with a simple surgery where she basically was breathing Anastesia instead and it was in her system for a year. Her parents were told that she would have severe brain damage and had to be treated like a toddler for the rest of her life. One day she woke up in 6th grade expecting to go to her first day of 5th grade and had blanked out an entire year of her life. She had no idea why her mom and sister were so happy to see her that morning.
I was young. Like 7 or 8. Just got back to the ward in the children's hospital I was in after a leg operation. There was this clown entertaining the kids and I just went "Why is the nurse dressed like that?"
I just had minor surgery last week (cubital tunnel release), and came out of anesthesia with a general feeling of goodwill toward my fellow man. My dad was there as caretaker, and I declared to him that I loved everyone right now, and that I wished there were some cute nurses around so I could tell them I loved them too. There was only one (male) nurse on duty, and it was a great disappointment to me that day. I'm usually not even good with women. I should get anesthesia more often.
Don't worry - I'm in my 40s now, I've had surgery 13 times, and every single time I've woken up from the general anaesthesia, I've asked the time, pleaded for a vomit bowl (paranoia after first surgery - not pretty) and pain meds, then cried for half an hour before passing out again for a few hours. Every damn time! I never called for my mum (but she was never the caretaking-when-sick kind) but I did say "I want to go home" and "I want my cat" a lot.
I was coming round at the dentist. I thought I was in a dentist chair hovering over a river. I was pushing the nurse and dentist back saying “Get back! Get back! You’ll drown!” They laughed
After getting my wisdom teeth out I was told I cant drive home. I replied "Watch me!" And promptly tried to wheel myself straight down a FLIGHT OF STAIRS. Almost went right off the top of the stairs and was stopped by a nurse.

"Dude you had wrist surgery, no one touched your balls" is the best quote I've seen in a long time
My brother woke up from anesthesia after anappendix surgery while he was rolled into another room. Me and my mum walking on his side. He shouts "woah this car is really fast" and moved on to make childish "car noises" with his tongue until they stopped in the other room. He made a "break noise" and said "that was the best racetrack I ever drove" and felt back to sleep.
The two nurses (one male, one female) couldnt hold their laughter. A minute later the female nure assured us that its pretty normal that people fantasize after surgery but that they never saw such a unique reaction.
Still gets me a good laught even though its about 10 years ago.
My grandma told me she woke up in the middle of surgery and asked the doctor "what are you doing?" to which the doctor replied "I'm fixing your foot" and she just said "oh ok".

Yea it probably was 😀
I believe that they are the same person!!
i once proposed to a nurse when I was coming out of anesthesia lmao. Didn't have glasses on so I couldn't really see her, but I kept telling her she was 'so beautiful' and asked if she wanted to get married. I'm pretty sure her reply was "honey, I've tried marriage, never again." Then later once I had my glasses on and was a little more awake, I kept telling my mom about how much I loved sprite (they gave me sprite and graham crackers to settle my stomach after surgery), like raving about it. One of the nurses gave me a giant cup filled with it to bring home, and that's honestly still one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me
Aww!

i woke up from anesthesia
i started speaking in english
i live in finland
I wonder if temporarily switching languages after anesthesia is common. I woke up from surgery a few years ago speaking fluent Spanish (learned in college, but hadn't used in ages). A second surgery this year had a similar effect, but this time I woke up using sign langauge to say, "Hi," and ask repeatedly for water.
I distinctly remember a nurse saying, "What is she doing? Is that sign? Do we have anyone on the floor that knows sign language?"
So.... Every language I have tried to learn is in memory somewhere, but mainly unaccesible unless I am waking from anaesthesia. I highly suspect if I ever go under again, I may come around speaking Anglo-Saxan due to my time reading old manuscripts for history courses....
@@ShinigamiTwin possibly normal, at least they said to me that, hearing someone speak other language was not the weirdest thing they have seen or heard

My dad woke up from anesthesia and asked the doctor how soon after he will be able to play the piano. Doc said he should be fine after a couple days. Dad said good, I've never been able to play before.

I gave birth to my first son, but the placenta didn't get out. So the doctor explains to me they have to put me under completly and get all of it manually out, so that I do not get septic shock. After the procedure, one nurse was by my side when I woke up. I said, with my eyes closed: "Doctor, I didn't feel a thing. I hope you're not like this at home. Your poor wife..." and fell asleep again.
Oh and allso, the first words I utterd to my newborn son were: " My what big balls you have" to wich everyone started smirking and barely holding it together. But I was genuinly worried so I asked "No really, look at them! Is that normal?!?" And that's when the people around me lost it 😂😂😂
Why DO boy babies have such huge balls!!! I saw the birth video of my brother and his balls with fucking huge in proportion to his body!? WHY IS THAT?
Both amazing stories. Thank you so much for sharing.

I insisted after my wisdom teeth surgery to go with dad to get the meds.
"I feel fantastic idk what you're on about"
So dad had to sit there and die inside while standing in line at the pharmacy with me, mouth full of VERY BLOODY cotton, and looking at everyone going "I got my wisdom teeth out lol how are you"
I was waking up from surgery on my testicle and they were pulling out my breathing tube. Something in my brain said "dont let them take!" And I remember biting down hard and growling not wanting to give up the tube. The doctor leaned down to reassure me and according to my father I punched the doctor in the face and then passed out.
Woke up with a vague memory of fighting for the tube and then being told what happened.
Apparently in my medical file it says "holds on to breathing tube" to worn future doctors. Apparently it's a very dangerous natural reaction some people have.
lmao that’s beautiful
This is why we typically had restraints on intubated patients. Later as a patient vented for a week, I had them too after apparently trying to extubate myself. No memory of it whatsoever.
Damn gladly I’m not violent on waking up from anesthetics someone could be trying to strangle me or have a gun to my head I’d just smile and make a joke
The very first time i had surgery for anything was when i was eleven, and it was for dental repair. Let me tell you, being in medical coma for four hours and then waking up with no idea what happened or where you are for the first time ever is the most disorienting and terrifying feeling.
I remember having to drink this weird liquid that tasted ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS, and having the hiccups. Then just before i fell asleep i remember shouting "MOM, IF I DON'T MAKE IT, TELL THE SHAREHOLDERS THAT THE GOLD IS UNDERNEATH THE STOVE!"
Did she check under the stove?

I had it when i was 6 for gallstones... not really terrifying because i remembered almost right away where i was. But my firat words i think were "I don't feel so good" and then i threw up.

When I had my gallbladder removed (I had gallstones at age 18 somehow), after I woke up, I kept telling my mom, who was in the room (not the OR) with me how much I love her. Prior, I’d been worried that the anesthesia would make me lose control and just start cursing, but all that came out of my mouth was “I love you, Mom” a bunch of times.

Maybe not the greatest story, but my sister and I got our wisdom teeth out on the same day. I'm generally a very affectionate person, and coming out of the anesthesia it was absolutely ridiculous. I was trying to give hugs to everyone and stuff like that. My sister is very insistent on being independent, so coming out of the surgery, she attempted to walk herself out while repeating "I can do it" again and again. Lo and behold, she walks herself directly into a wall. They tell her she needs to be in a wheelchair out to the car because it's standard procedure, but she keeps saying "I can do it." They tell her again that they have to and she says "Okay......... No, wait.... I can do it" This continued for a little while. It was great.
Funny...I had all four out and was able to walk fine afterward. (Came to in a reclining chair, was told to wait a while and then asked if I could stand. I was careful of course, and managed to walk all the way to the car.)

Sounds like a bizarre tres leches cake, stoned version.
I remember that i was having surgery on my underarm and I was put under anesthesia. I woke up and felt incredible pain but I couldn’t move and could only talk with great effort. There was a nurse next to me looking at something. I don’t know if this was before during or after the surgery but I gathered all my strength to mutter a single word “hurts”. Thankfully she heard me and put me back under.
When I got my wisdom teeth out, I apparently stood up after the procedure was done, addressed the doctor as 'sir', and proceeded to salute him and march out the door, instructing the nurse assisting me on proper roll-step form all the way to the car.
Well i don't remember what kind of surgery it was but i woke up and stood up said Hey Guys and falls asleep ._.
I’m so confused, I got 4 wisdom teeth extracted, was only given local anesthesia and when home on the bus. How do people have so many weird things happen after the get their wisdom teeth extracted
I just remember after having surgery just asking what clock is as soon as I woke up. I think I didnt do anything interesting according to my parents at least.

My Grandfather went under for heart surgery and when he woke up he heard one of the nurses say something about indians. My mother and grandmother were there soon after and he spent the next two hours flipping out and trying to tell my mother and grandmother that nurses were trying to turn him into an Indian. They laughed hysterically and my mom came home in a good mood that night and told me all about it. I had stayed home as I hate hospitals and frankly don't want to relive a previous situation with my father (he passed away).
I am sorry for your loss, but you needn't worry, pretty sure that most people only die once.

That sounds like something my close friend would say :)
Always watching out for others!
But its not efficient To do so
During an internship at a hospital I was in the recovery room with a nurse who was showing me around. So we’re in one of the recovery rooms and this lady who is just starting to wake up from anesthesia says out loud. “Oh my god my nipples are sooo hard...” I have to leave the room and in the hallway I burst out laughing. The nurse later told me that that wasn’t even the funniest one she had heard.

When I woke up after my Spinal Fusion, I was so drugged that I started to panick imidiently after awaking because i couldn't see. *I can't see! Am i blind? I want to see! Why can't i see?!* Ect ect. The nurse finally heard my muttered panicking, and (helpfully) told me to open my eyes. I did, saw that i wasn't blind, and went back to sleep.
Bonus! The first words i said too my parents post op was: "Get out of my way you shorties!"
(They were in the doorway, and preventing the nurse from wheeling me into the room, and i was just sitting in the hall, under those freaking eyeball scorching lights.)
I also snatched 3 pudding cups from the nurse, and proceded to eat them all. Like in 10 minutes. I was just shoveling it in my mouth.

On Christmas AM of 2015, I had a freak seizure & drove into the center of a roundabout. Thankfully I didn't hurt anybody else but I broke my legs & 7 vertebrae.
Needless to say I had a lot of surgery especially after I got flesh eating MRSA. They did a lot but eventually told me tgeyf to amputate. So they drew a line where they would cut and I went into surgery. When I woke up in the recovery room I was quite sad but then lifted my blanket and saw both legs. Somehow then I convinced myself theyd switched my legs. I started yelling at the staff for having played such a cuel joke. In my hazy confusion I thought it was one elaborate prank. It took them a while to explain that in the OR there happened to be a plastic surgeon who figured out a way to save my leg with bone & skin grafting.
I couldn't stop apologizing for how mean I had been when I thought my legs were switched. And I couldn't stop thanking them for saving my leg.

@Wes Prang Facial wounds tend to bleed a shite ton. I've sucessfully broken an eyebrow and the people around me were mortified due to the literal waterfall of blood, gushing down my cheek. It took several minutes before someone got themselves together and told me my entire right side of my face was covered in blood. Shocked me like hell, cause all I had felt was extra warmth on my face and an increasingly wet shirt and I was on my way inside to figure out what the hell was going on, since the wound itself was just switching between being numb and feeling like a normal, unbroken eyebrow.
TL:DR. There's a lot of blood vessels in the face and if they rupture, it'll quickly start to look like a horror movie and that will naturally leave everyone around you mortified. I don't think the same applies to hands, but idk
When I was young my second oldest brother pushed me into a night stand and I hit the corner of it and split my head open. It didn't hurt, but damn was there a lot of blood. I remember my mom holding my head under the sink and all I could see wad blood. Of course, he never got punished for it. Me and my oldest brother are the only ones that get punished, neither my sister or my second oldest. I have a feeling that that's a huge factor they're both massive dicks.
When I got my wisdom teeth out, I woke up shouting, I need to pee, because I needed to pee. After releasing myself, I was taken too my mother, and a family friend. I spoke slowly and in a deep groggy voice. I was given a cup.of water and spilt it on myself. I started laughing and announced "I baptized myself Catholic"

I was hospitalised in 2014 and had a lot of diagnostic tests done during my four month stay which required anesthesia (spinal tap, bone marrow, etc) so I have a lot of stories.
The best one, I think, was when I woke up from being unconcious and was convinced I was Queen Victoria.
i speak on behalf of all of us when i say i need the whole story of that.
Please
Okay here goes...
I was under anaesthetic for a spinal tap that was being done to try and find out why my body was basically dying and everything went pretty normal.
I wasn’t aware of that much at the time because of various medication I was on (morphine, etc) so I don’t remember much of what happened but my Mother delights in telling me about the batshit crazy stuff I would do and I have enough vague memories to actually recall some of my thoughts/feelings when the stuff was going down.
Anyway, everything went well and I came out of anaesthetic without any issues...until a nurse asked me my name. Apparently without missing a beat I declared that I was Queen Victoria which I then fully maintained as I was pushed by a porter back to the wards.
I was riding in a massive hospital wheelchair because they only had the super wide ones left which for some reason meant in my mind that I was in some kind of expensive carriage -.-
My Mother told me I was doing the ridiculous little royal wave and talking in a weird voice saying stuff like “Wonderful to see my loyal subjects on this blessed day...”
Eventually I stopped thinking I was Queen Victoria but I had many *many* other hallucinations because of different medications including anaesthetic.
@@nowaynomore oh my god thats amazing
After that story, *I'm* convinced you're a queen.
Had surgery done fairly recently, after waking up from anesthesia the first thing I said to the nurses and staff waking/checking me up was "Are we done? Oh my god you all are such angels."
I also apparently told the man in charge of performing the anesthesia who also was alongside the staff that I "didn't dream of Hawaii but instead dreamed of getting paid a big sum of money by a client and that was equally gucci" while doing the ok hand motion at him.
When I got my wisdom teeth out, it was in a hospital bc they were impacted. When I come to, nurse asks my name to make sure I’m not brain dead. I say “I’m a lesbian”. My parents were there and I was previously closeted.

When I came out of surgery, I found it very important that the nurses know how comfortable the bed was. I was so transfixed by the comfort of that bed. When they went to leave, calling out "I think this is the most comfortable I've been in a bed in my life!" before she escaped beyond the curtains. I guess I felt they could use some reassurance that the hospital had chosen their furnishings well. Always acknowledge good work.
I was put under to have my gallbladder removed and as i started getting drowsy, I could hear the nurses doing a count of all their tools for the surgery. The last thing i remember is telling them to make sure they do a count when they're done.
I ended up going back later for severe pain from the surgery (pushed myself a little too hard) and when I was being admitted into the hospital I jokingly said "You should call the surgeon and ask him if he lost a watch"
When my bf woke up after having his wisdom teeth removed he complained for over an hour that he didn't have a chin and didn't know where it went. It was numb thanks to the meds.
I know the feeling. I had my wisdom teeth removed last year. Your mouth is really numb for awhile. It's the weirdest feeling I've ever experienced.
Moon Flight yep. it feels like a void that should hurt, but doesn’t. And it’s so difficult to feel any food in your mouth and swallow it it’s almost not worth trying to eat for that first day.
And then, eventually, the pain does come. And you have a prescription to keep the pain mostly away.
When I dislocated my knee last summer, both the paramedics and ER had to put me on a lot of drugs. I had about four to five does of fentanyl ( a narcotic to treat severe pain ), a lot of nausea meds too. When I got to the ER they told me they had to put me to sleep to put my knee back in place and they gave me a strong dose of anti anxiety meds then a dose of ketamine.
When I woke up, my two friends were waiting for me in the room. I really struggled to open my eyes for five minutes so I just talked with my eyes closed. When I opened them and saw my friends I was shocked to see them standing there. Then I looked at my best friend and said “Wow. You’re still ugly.”
oof. thats just sad.
Dylan Beattie I did that, needed full leg brace for a month and pt. Hurt like frick. Worst injury I’ve ever had, thank goodness I never needed surgery though.
What kind of place gives fentanyl to people? They give morphine.
Ketamine is only given at knockout doses unless you literally are out of opioids.

When I was 4 I had my tonsils removed when apparently as soon as I woke up I screamed "I WANT YOGURT!!!" and passed out again only to be woken up again by a nurse with a bowl of yogurt.
I HATED yogurt so I still don't know why I wanted it and my mom forced me to eat it to be polite.
That's the equivalent of me shouting "I want green-beans!" after waking up. I'm still a very picky eater...
Also, why would a parent force their child to eat something they know they hate after the child endured a surgery?! Anesthesia is bad enough...
Probiotics, maybe?
Patient had heart arrhythmia called WPW, which can cause a rapid resting heart rate (tachycardia), so the ER staff were doing an oblation, which is where they disable part of the heart so that that part of the heart muscle doesn't contract too soon.
During the procedure, the patient is anesthetized before a catheter is inserted into the patient's femoral artery, a probe is sent up that blood vessel to the heart, and part of the heart is "burned."
Just before the doctor was to shock the patient's heart to kill that part of the muscle tissue, he asked, "how is the patient doing under anesthesia?"
"Alert and responsive, but in no pain," came the answer in a (to him) unfamiliar voice.
"Who said that?" asked the doctor.
"I did. Your patient," I said.
"Oh, well THAT's got to change."
"Yes, sir," said the anesthetist.
And I was out.

Had a cousin that went in to surgery, when she woke up she looked dead into my eyes and said, "Do I still have...my balls?"
we tease her a lot to this day.
When I was 5 my brother who is 10 years older than me got his wisdom teeth removed. My brother who can’t stand me wanting to hang out with him was balling his eyes out as he was waking up from surgery and saying how much he loved me repeatedly and clinging onto me as he was wheeled to the car.
Wait... You're supposed to wake up from that?
uh oh

Me: *visible confusion*
Michael Jackson's Doctor:
SirRyan__ oh I heard he did a magic trick and it works if you forget about eating, sleeping, or drinking. It works!
Yea but not like my mother during the surgery ._.
Ich Mag Games heheok
I remember when I went under I can change my voice really well to all diffrent ranges was told by mother that when I was coming to I sat up really quick and a very deep voice looked at the doctor and said God has forsaken you all your souls belong to me then flopped back apparently the doctor was really freaked out
Lol
Hahahaha
Wow, now _I’m_ freaked out! 😱😄
I was getting light headed with how hard I just laughed from this.
What
I had all four of my wisdom teeth out at the same time. Woke up complaining that "the walls are melting"
I was listening to this in the background while doing something else. I hear "Pubies" and i think that's what he's actually saying.. "Pubies.."
Same 😂
3:58 From what I've heard/witnessed, most of the elderly people probably would have laughed.
Cheers doggo!
Also, when I was 18 I went in to have sergery on my foot. I don't remember much, but was told after that when the nurse was asking me to move my limbs, I kept moving the wrong ones. Like she would ask me to move my left hand, and my foot would wiggle instead. Was also jokingly asked by my mom if I had a bf. She said I turned expectantly and stared at the wall for 5 seconds silently. Then turned to her and said "no."
Here is a story for you.. a patient was recovering from a three day long anesthesia as his lungs couldn’t function after he drowned in the sea..
First thing he did when he woke up was to shake his salt shaker very violently and nut multiple times in his garms... every time he came, he shouted out a name..
He fell back asleep and we changed him while he was out of it after a quick dry bath..
When his family came to visit.. we got to know that he nutted out while screaming his sisters names.. they were three
Had my wisdom teeth removed (only three because there wasn't a fourth in my mouth). I remember telling my surgeon that I was a wolf (Native American zodiac is a wolf) and I proceeded to freaking howl as he helped me to my mother's car. So, I was howling the entire time down the hallway to outside...
ExperimentJ I’m just imagining there being houses near there and a bunch of dogs howling back in the distance
ExperimentJ on all levels except physical you are a woof
Woodley Woo like Zootopia?
I was 13 at the time and had to have nose surgery (can’t remember what for), but when I woke up I was already crying.
I wasn’t in any pain but I just couldn’t stop crying, when the nurse came in she told me that if I didn’t stop crying that she wouldn’t allow me to see my mother.
Apparently my mother overheard this and as we were leaving the hospital, said she was rather pissed off at the nurse.
When I woke up, I was rambling on about the Sims 4, apparently. Telling the nurse "Yeah, I have a sim that's a nurse too, but I'm still trying to get promoted."
I was awake for my Wisdom teeth removal. Totally out of it though. My dentist’s phone went off and I yelled at him the entire time that he needs to answer it. Someone could be dying😂😂😂😂
Happened to me, only learned about it after the fact. Got my Wisdom Teeth pulled, got wheeled out on a wheel chair, was helped to stand up. The car door was opened for me, and I was told to sit down in the car. I face-planted straight into the side of the car. Not so much as a grunt out of me. I was at home when I fully woke up, with dried blood under my nose wondering where it came from.
What the heck? I didn't get anesthesia when my wisdom teeth were pulled. He just gave me a shot a shot in the gums with some sort of numbing agent and went to town with a pair of pliers. Now I don't have a fun anesthesia story
@@ghostspore3163 My guy had me completely blacked out. I remember getting the injection, and the next thing I knew, I was at home.
@@ghostspore3163 Probably because you drank water or something beforehand. General anesthesia cannot be administered unless the patient has fasted for a full 24 hours prior, including water. Otherwise, you have to make do with local anesthesia which is cheaper but less enjoyable.
I had surgery a month ago and when I woke up I was talking in this weirdly high pitched voice and asked everyone I came across "are you okay?? Are you good?? Is everything alright??" Including the doctor, both of the nurses, and of course my parents...
My dad still hasn't let me live it down
A very nice person to wake up as.
Some favorites for me:
1. Dose of fentanyl before surgery, immediately high as a kite, say to my surgeon: "if this is why people do drugs, i can get behind this"
2. Woke up from another surgery and was talking gibberish abt random stuff, then out of no where called the nurse a b**ch and then started crying bc i felt bad
3. Woke up and asked my mom what time it was every 30 seconds and once she got annoyed i cried bc i felt bad. I cry every time i wake up
4. I was getting a chest tube in, gave me some stuff for being anxious and a local anesthetic, told them "im still anxious as hell, so if you mess up im suing you"
Last year I went into cardiac arrest while in the E.R. and was unconscious for about four days in the ICU. I woke up with them removing a tube from my mouth and the first words out of my mouth were "this isn't what deepthroating is supposed to feel like". I don't remember saying it but the doctor, my nurse, and my best friend and her husband all confirm that's what I said.
When I get anesthesia
*The anesthesia passes out*
Please dont eat me

In Mother Russia anesthesia passes out because of the patient.
My grandma was in the hospital because of fever! A phone on the other side of the place rings! She talks to her hand for 10 minutes thinking it's my mom!
i am cryinng
I think this would be funnier if my inside voice wasn’t screaming when it got to the exclamation points.
All I remember from my wisdom teeth removal is asking the nurse if she had a boyfriend. I asked in english - I live in germany. Somehow I even managed to recognize her when she came checking on me after, she seemed flattered lol.
Also told me that I spoke in a mish mash of english and german during the whole procedure
The thing about the old black women is funnier yet because the guy who took her home found that post lol
I had my wisdom teeth taken out all at once and I remember waking up, asking if I was done, then getting up and leaving the building. I then drove home completely "sober". They called apparently very worried thinking I should have been very loopy at the time
After i got my appendix removed, they were wheeling me on the bed back to my room and i just sat straight up and started singing a whole new world from Aladdin and they had to force me back down onto the bed before i hurt myself
I partially woke up during the removal of my wisdom teeth, I was able to move the lower half of my right arm so I was slapping the dentist until they figured out that I was awake lmao. Then they did something and I was out for the rest of it. Woke up totally awake and aware, never been more disappointed in something.
Did ya know that chloroform and other chemicals with anestheological properties were used in low doses as a truth serum around the time of the cold war
You know after listening to the 911 operator unforgettable calls segment this is a helluva palate cleanser.
4:29 Waking up, still loopy from anesthesia, to see one of the medical professionals frantically looking for your legs. I can only imagine the confused terror that would have ensued if he hadn't realized what was going on.
I fully understand the David Bowie request.
care to elaborate?
Ben Thomason because David Bowie was awesome and I too would like to be him haha

I had a surgery removing a windsock-shaped piece of tissue that was causing Hydronephrosis in my left kidney. Woke up from anesthesia earlier than expected, I still had the anesthesia mask on! My not conscious self noticed that there was something on my face, and decided to claw at it (and I had long, sharp nails) and when I had fully awaken shortly after, I immediately asked the doctor
“Why do my eyes hurt so much?”
I scratched them really bad while drugged up...
Once when I was out of it I was told suddenly I sat up right and did the Adams family clicking thing because I said I thought I could hear the song playing, and then went back to sleep 😂
I remember in freshman year, my friend came into school during last period to get her homework from the day. She told the class she had her wisdom tooth pulled, and then proceeded to do a full on pterodactyl roar, saying she was a dinosaur. Then she left and I almost cried
When I woke up there was a dude next to me telling a nurse “I wouldn’t be telling you all of this if I wasn’t loopy on meds”. He then went on to talk about how he worked for an Air Force base that launched rockets for nasa and spaceX. Wish I could’ve heard what he said...
After I got my colonoscopy I woke up in a small puddle of diluted blood that had dripped from my IV because I had scratched at it while I was sleeping. So I woke up saw that puddle and thought to myself „Oh great“ and went back to sleep. Then after about 5 minuets I wake up again and notice the puddle had gotten a bit bigger and suddenly a nurse came in and took out my IV. Only after cleaning the now slightly congealed blood off my arm she noticed the blood puddle and the blood that had dripped on my sweatshirt and she just said „well... that wasn’t supposed to happen...“
Similar thing happened to me when I was around 10. I frequented hospitals as a kid due to a neurological problem. The docs always had trouble finding a spot to prick so they can put in the IV catheter.
It ended up being on my ankle. Now, I move around a lot in my sleep. We had temperature checks every morning at like 6-7am.
Nurse comes into the room, takes off my blanket and sees this enormous pool of blood under the sheets. I had apparently kicked the catheter off in my sleep and the needle fucked up my foot. Blood. Everywhere.
We just stared at each other in complete silence.
@@heiltotheking ah ouch
i had 2 operations and after both i yanked out my IV and turned around... both times woke up wet from one side with saline and mildly damp with mostly dried blood from the other
*shrug*
My friend had an incident with a simple surgery where she basically was breathing Anastesia instead and it was in her system for a year. Her parents were told that she would have severe brain damage and had to be treated like a toddler for the rest of her life. One day she woke up in 6th grade expecting to go to her first day of 5th grade and had blanked out an entire year of her life. She had no idea why her mom and sister were so happy to see her that morning.
This is a beautiful story
I was young. Like 7 or 8. Just got back to the ward in the children's hospital I was in after a leg operation.
There was this clown entertaining the kids and I just went "Why is the nurse dressed like that?"
Customs: Name?
Me: Worcestershire sauce
Customs: what?
Me: what?
"...keep my sides from launching into orbit..."
I just had minor surgery last week (cubital tunnel release), and came out of anesthesia with a general feeling of goodwill toward my fellow man. My dad was there as caretaker, and I declared to him that I loved everyone right now, and that I wished there were some cute nurses around so I could tell them I loved them too. There was only one (male) nurse on duty, and it was a great disappointment to me that day.
I'm usually not even good with women. I should get anesthesia more often.
I got sucker punched as a CNA so hard I almost punched back, the guy was 85 and I saw stars
When I woke up from anaesthesia back in January, I was crying hysterically and screaming ‘I want my mum I want my mum’ I’m 19. Lmfao
Don't worry - I'm in my 40s now, I've had surgery 13 times, and every single time I've woken up from the general anaesthesia, I've asked the time, pleaded for a vomit bowl (paranoia after first surgery - not pretty) and pain meds, then cried for half an hour before passing out again for a few hours. Every damn time! I never called for my mum (but she was never the caretaking-when-sick kind) but I did say "I want to go home" and "I want my cat" a lot.
Just Another Bucky Lover ‘i want my cat’ that is so cute omg
Cool people: "I want my mom." "I want my cat."
Me: "I... Let's watch a movie :) " *still on zombie mode
@@RadiantSharaShaymin LOL that must be the first time someone's ever even insinuated I'm cool - thank you! :D
I was coming round at the dentist. I thought I was in a dentist chair hovering over a river. I was pushing the nurse and dentist back saying “Get back! Get back! You’ll drown!” They laughed
After getting my wisdom teeth out I was told I cant drive home. I replied "Watch me!" And promptly tried to wheel myself straight down a FLIGHT OF STAIRS. Almost went right off the top of the stairs and was stopped by a nurse.
