local or general anesthetic?

Hi girls. Iv booked my ba for the 18th march at preston with dr traynor. I think i know what size im goin to go for but im abit indecisive when it comes to which anesthetic to have. The last time i had general i was sick quite abit afterwards and dont really want to go through that again, but im not sure if i would panic havin local, knowin what was bein done to my body, although i know i wouldnt b able to c what was goin on lol.
Did anybody hav local who wouldnt mind sharin their experience so i can try make up my mind 🙂 thank yooo x

They don’t provide local for this kind of op. I have already asked hun x

From what I have seen on here surgeons either use general anaesthetic or twilight sedation. I’m with Dr Traynor and I think he used general. X

Eee i could of sworn when i had my consultaion they asked me if i wanted local or general.. im abit confused now lol. I thought it was abit odd to b able to hav local because i would never of thought they would do that when havin a procedure, but when i said i would panic if i was awake when i was havin it she said it was best that i just had general…i think it might b best if i do just get put to sleep either way. Otherwise it would b the longest 40 minutes of my life lol. Thanks girls x

Sorry that was meant to say I think he USES general lol damn ipad correcting me!

I was never asked or told tbh. I’m just going with what people on here have had with him and also the nurse and my PC mentioned it when I said the only thing I am nervous about is the canular.

Contact your PC and ask her to confirm what he uses.

I had twilight with local anaesthetic x

Will do hun thanks 🙂
I was originally down to hav my ba on 25th feb cos they had a cancelation but i couldnt get anyone to get time off so soon. I only had consultation last week. Abit gutted that iv got longer to wait cos i got so excited that i only had a couple of weeks wait but at least this gives me abit more time to prepare myself lol x

Mine is on 4th March so I will let you know what it’s like lol 🙂

What size are you going to go for? X

Would u recommend it fiona?
I think im goin for 275cc danielle. Im only a size 6 so didnt want anythin too big incase i topple over haha. I told my PC i only wanted to be a C orD cup and the first size she gave me was 350cc. It didnt look right on me but i think its cos im not used to seein anythin there haha. I asked what size they would make me anx she said E cup. I says that was too big so i tried 300cc and i decided on those but the more i think bout it i think im goin to go smaller. Iv got my pre op on monday so goin to ask to try the 250 or 275. I think id feel more comfortable with them.
What size u gettin? X

I’ve gone for 400cc I’m a size 10/12 so they would be suitable for my frame…going to try and lose a little weight after I’ve had them done though.

I think a C or a D cup sounds about right for a size 6 frame.

I know what you mean about them not being used to seeing anything there I felt the same when trying sizes on lol

Make sure u get plenty of pics up as soon as u can 🙂 u wil defo need to show those off 🙂 x

Hiya Melanie, I had local anaesthetic with sedation on Friday and literally don’t remember a thing about the op. Didn’t feel anything so can’t have been too awake! I chose local so I could be in and out in the same day, I was in the hospital 4 hours total. I was very nervous about having local with sedation but honestly it’s totally fine 🙂 nothing to be worried about xo

I would totally recommend it , for me it was no different to a general anaesthetic I don’t remember a thing x

Thanks girls 🙂 il tell my PC Tomoro that i would rather hav that 🙂 xx

Hi hun i had traynor he uses general x

Hey I had Mr traynor I had general wasn’t given any options. I was a day case in and out on the same day just felt like I’d had a few glasses of wine. Good luck x
