[Video poster's] brother broke his arm in a hockey tournament & they had to re-break his arm to put it back in place. So they gave him a general anesthetic & he had the greatest reaction to it.

Everything’s in slowww motionn, daaaammmmnnnn, LOL
This happened to me once. I went to a colonoscopy clinic for an exam. The nurse told me to lay on my side with my arm draped over the metal guard while she injected an IV with their special stuff. I lay there listening to all the nurses chatting out in the hall and I finally called out. My nurse came in and I told her the stuff you gave did not work. She said well Mr. Red Devil your exam is over. And I was going “What?” I never knew I was out and when I did wake up I thought I was hearing the same conversations. That was some good stuff!
-— And I was going “What?” -—
Did they tell you that you were awake and talking to them the whole time, except you have no memory of it?
That’s what they told me. Veeery strange.
I’ve heard that the nickname for propofol is “Milk of Amnesia”.
Valium is the drug for me. I’m glad it’s prescription-only, because it would be very easy to get addicted to. It’s sooooo relaxing.
The freakiest call I ever got from a post operative nurse was that my patient was masturbating while still asleep in the recovery room. I told her to give him 30cc’s of saltpeter but I don’t think she appreciated my joking order as I was reported to the chief of surgery.
He’s not on Propofol...that drug will make you stop breathing so we intubate people. He’s not on nitrous as
he’s isn’t wearing a mask. He is most likely recieving
Fentanyl or Dilaudid for the pain and Versed to prevent
him from remembering the incident. This is not
“general anesthesia”....that is when someone is unconscious,
intubated and has a machine breathing for them....this is
called “conscious sedation”. That means he’s sedated and won’t remember the procedure but is still conscious so he can cooperate with commands, protect his own airway and breath on his own and cooperate with an otherwise painful procedure. Versed is a very effective “truth drug”...for most people it will bring out their inner whatever they are.
He must have been injured on the field while playing football or something.
Good thing he was a clean living young man. That was so funny.
well, slowpoke, it was IN FACT a field injury. HOCKEY, and remember you are not a speed reader.
So THAT is what Bden had during the debate.
At some point in his life this kid is going to hate his parents for taping this, even more so than the naked baby picture. I can see his friends holding up some fingers and saying, “Tyler, how many butterflies do you see?”
By George (or Joe), I think you’ve got it!
Was the nurse Sandra Fluke?
That’s why we have pharmacists.
I can relate. Last month had a colonoscopy, they main lined it not intrsmuscular....I watched the nurse slowly pass the medication into the IV. Remember saying OOOOH and that injection looks like Elmers glue...(it was not clear but white)Woke up when it was done...sure would like to know what it was also.....I have a high tolerance for drugs so no after effects darn.....her husband came out of his colonoscopy higher than a kite...she laughed all the way home and he wouldn’t come down...she expected me to be the same way, but no two people act the same...
I gave my opinion on everything from the music to the fact the room was cold. The last thing I remember is the doctor saying, "Can we get a gag on her?"
:sigh:
Good times.
Thank goodness I have yet to run into any of them again.
It was almost 2 months later and my wrist was still hurting so my mother took me to Cook County hospital in Chicago.
When I was there, they advised my mother and I that the wrist was broken and they had to reset it and in order to do so they would have to put me to sleep.
They used ether to put me under and it was extremely bad. I couldn't breathe and I was literally seeing stars while suffocating.
Watching this video makes me jealous.
thats better than a LOL its a belly laugh...thanks I needed that....GG
I’ve never had a colonoscopy. Y’all are starting to make me jealous. ;^)
I’ve never had a broken bone, but I’m not jealous. ;^)
