Want to speak to an anethatist before my op???

Hi Ladies, Ive just tried ringing Mya Leeds clinic and Park Hill hospital because I really want to speak to an anethatist before I pay my balance for my BA in 18th May, Im so worried about being put to sleep and never waking up and leaving my 2 babies behind with no mum, I just want some re assurance and for them to answer some questions I have anyone know how I can get to speak to one before my op date?

Thanks in advance! – sorry if this is a bit dull but I really cant sleep worrying about it!!

xx

Aw I was worried about that when I had an op a few years ago. I’ve bEen put to sleep 5 times in my life for diff reasons, I’m 25 now. The anaethetists do their job several times every day so they know exactly what they’re doing, they wouldn’t put u to sleep if you wasn’t healthy etc so do not worry. And IF for some reason something did happen, you are in the best possible place for them to sort it out. If you are having a BA you are only asleep for about an hour anyway! It really is over so quickly and you will wonder what you were so worried about in the first place! XxX

Thanks char321 it is reassuring to hear everyones storeys im just a born worrier I think!!! xx

Aw for us we worry about everything but they do it all the time and don’t think nothing of it! I’m petrified of needles and that was my main worry this time but honestly its fine! XxX

Kymbo I’m possabily the worst worrier ever lol I saw Mr k 3x and each time we went thru the same thing, I don’t Think speaking to the anestatist will stop you been worried cause nothing cab stop it its just one of these things lol but mr k did tell me u have more chance dying going to work than this, also uve also had 2 children Like me and theres more chance of dying in childbirth than been put to sleep, and you have done that and Are fine just. U can do it hun, I no its not gonna make much difference Wot I say cause it never worked with me too I got myself into such a state thinking I’m never gonna see my kids again but now I Think omg it was so easy n id do it again tomorow. Your well looked after at parkhill chick, go dir it if its what u want u wint regret it good luck hun ul b fine xx

Thanks for your post Beckie I have been worried about this as well, 2 kids op 3rd May xx

I know hun its horrible its impossible not to worry, I’ve been there but can promise you ul wake up think oo achey n sore but was that it? It’s over n done with so quick. On the day u don’t even get much time to Think bout it so ul be fine, I got out of the car looked at my kids cried and then went inside n that was that went sooo fast.. enjoy it xx

It might sound weird but I really enjoyed my day! And I’d do it all again without a blink of an eye! XxX

I was so worried i asked to be knocked out by gas before having the needle but he said he couldnt do that, put his arm round my shoulder an said i will take care of you, ill be there every step of the way. it sounds like a little thing to say but as soon as he said it wi felt so reassured an felt safe with him! an everything was fine! didnt feel the needle in the end lol ur in very safe hands an u will be fine! they wouldnt give u a ga if they knew u wernt allowed it! xx

Thats it im not excited at all because im so scared I read all your updates saying its my turn today and I think on my day im just going to feel sick!!! Dont get me wrong im really excited to get some new boobies but been put to sleep is just freaking me out! xx

kymbo trust me a few weeks after ur op ull wanna do it all over again lol i actually get jealous of pre op girls now!! ha xx

You know when he came in too speak to you was he reassuring? could you ask him any questions? x

I think this is a natural feeling with you having little 1s. I was having 2nd thought because of this had my ba yesterday everthink was fone don’t worry hun. But if you could speak to him might make you feel better xx

he was very reassuring! made me feel at ease an comfortable with him, i asked him quite a few questions he told me everything really clearly without any silly doctor “lingo” i asked to have the needle in my inner elbow bit instead of hand cos it makes me feel sick an he agreed to that! just wasnt allowed gas but wouldnt of needed it as i didnt feel it, i had a very sexy male nurse teying to distract me so i just flirted with him till i fell asleep lol the next thing i know im awake an the nurse tells me i kept asking where the sexy bloke went an if i could go home now? haha dont worry hun just enjoy your day because its over so fast! xx

im glad u said that flicky cos i am terrified of the needle!

the op doesnt bother me and being asleep doesnt bother me but the silly little needle to put me to sleep terrifies me! i hate them and the thought of the hand thing makes me feel sick too

did u still have any needles or anything in when u woke up? x

I am the same, I nearly fainted after having a blood test, hate needles and drips and all those kind of things. But the one for the op is tiny and you can look away, and you are laying down when they do it. I found just talking to surgeons while I was laying there and they were doing it helped, you dont feel it so best to just pretend its not happening!

i didnt worry about being put to sleep once, the thing i worried about was being sat with a needle in ur hand all day, i thought oh thats gunna hurt so much but it wasnt a needle its judt a tiny plastic tube and ur that out it when u wake up anyway u dont even think about it! its also great as they can give u anti-sickness drugs and sleeping drugs thru it. all good! lol xx

thanks girls. i will just try not to think about it. mum and her friend are coming so ill get them or the surgeons to distract me and hopefully ill b asleep b4 i realise its there

im going as a day case so hoping they will just take it out pretty quick x

becki i was at the hospital at 7.30 an home by 4.30 lol went so fast!! enjot it! x

Is it a but weird that I’m actually looking forward to being put to sleep I’ve had operations in the past and I actually really like the feeling when ur going under! Xx

haha portia u crack head!! na i know what u mean though i was scared of the needle but the falling asleep bit was kinda nice felt highhhh eyes rolled back an all sorts… ha xx

Loool feels like ur on sum kind of drug! loool glad I ain’t alone lol x
