So scared of having general anisthetic! Help! :(

I have my consultation this friday, and will hopefully be booking my op for the end of October. But all I can think about is being put to sleep. I have only had general anisthetic once and that was when I was very young so I cant remember it very well. I am so scared!

ive never had one and im super scared!

Ive got my op next week and i keep worrying about the ga and ive never been put to sleep b4 X

im actually looking forward to it, i know it sounds strange lol. ive only had one as a kid too and il remember is being awake then waking up. youll be fine as least you know youve had it before and your body reacted fine to it, and it will all be over in a flash xx

Yeah. I was lying in bed last night and was just imagining myself lying on the hopspital bed looking up at strangers and them injecting me to put me to sleep. I already HATE needles Its all i am thinking about, i wish my boyfriend could hold my hand while they are doing it! xx

aWWWW girla i had my BA a wk ago.

I was also a bit worried bout the GA even tho i have had three before. My nurse came in with me and held my hand whilst i had the anaesthetic. I remember feeling all woooooozy and next thing i remember is waking up in my bed looking at my bazongas thinking OMG I have had it done.

Pls dont worry about the anaesthtic – when my surgeon came in to draw on me I asked if they had ever lost anyone under GA and he said No not yet and laughed… lol that made me laugh too xxxx

girls u will be fine xxxxxxxx

IM SCARED TO! ive never had it done before and scared, most thing im scared about is being sick when i wake up! ? ewwww i wana get it over with lol x x

Cuks is right huns try not to be worried the thought of things is always a lot worst. I had mine 3wks ago n was absolutely fine when he put the stuff in I could then feel my eyes going sleepy n felt my throat go funny. I have asthma so Shen I felt it in my throat I just thought I’m gonna have a asthma attack – I didn’t that all happened in the space of about 3/4 secs I was asleep. The next thing I remember was the nurse calling me telling me it was all over

U girls WILL be fine honest u’ll have boobies b4 u know it xx

I also felt sick after and they gave me a sickness jab n I was fine ate my toast n dinner later I’ve had never had a ga b4 this either xx

ahh thanks girls I know i will be fine but it just scares me!! I just want it to be over with. I know as soon as i wake up there will be a massive sigh of relief! xxx

Had my op yesterday. I fainted having blood test so was really scared. However it was great. Anethatist was lovely. They put canula in which was just a scratch. Put oxygen mask on. He said you’ll be asleep in 30 seconds. Next thing I knew I was waking up in recovery. Felt fantastic and had absolutely no side effects.

try being sliced open and major surgery when awake!!! now thats weird hahhha.. altho i feel so ill right now and cudnt sleep last night id gladly have an injection on GA right now as i feel bloody awful and need knockin out hahaha. never had any either, just had one operation that was major and wide awake thru out xxxxx

I had my GA today and it was so fine…. it’s like having a fabulous night’s sleep. I woke up crying, but that was relief because I had such a terrible time the first time I went for my op (my implants hadn’t arrived!. I was wheeled back to the room, chatted to my bezzie for an hour and then fell asleep for a little while. I just felt so sleepy and it was nice! The anaesthetist was awesome too, lovely lovely guy called Maurizio.. he was there when the first fiasco happened so was bending over backwards to put me at ease before he gave me the anaesthetic. I told him I was going to dream of my Miami holiday in September and then off I drifted to the lovely land of nod. You will be fine m’love so please don’t worry xxxxx
