For fun - anaesthetic influenced responses

I did when going under an anaesthetic for a hip replacement - I remember the surgeon 'ripping off my paper pants'!!! Must have been short of time that day. I don't remember a single thing after that thankfully!

When I was giving birth they gave me pethidine, my DH says that I shouted “that bl** stuff isn’t working!

Not me but a lady in the hospital bed opposite me sat up and started singing opera in Italian when she was coming round from her anaesthetic.

I said, “It would be nice to die.”

They instantly wheeled the resus cart up to my bed.

Obviously they thought I might give it a go!

I told the surgeon he needed a haircut.

I had been given a nerve block and sedation………went out like a light until the surgeon started his work! I came round, looked him in the eye and said “well, that didn’t work did it?” He immediately instructed the anaesthetist to give me a GA

When I was a student nurse I was doing my stint in theatre and this young man, who had just had an appendicectomy, was coming round from his anaesthetic and he kept saying "I'm a naughty boy. Oh I'm such a naughty boy." I remember the theatre sister saying "Tell us more." He never did.

The day before going into hospital for surgery under general anesthetic, I listened to a radio programme about Percy Shaw. He was the man who invented Cats Eyes. Road safety.
When my husband and daughter visited later, apparently I lay there, eyes closed and all I waffled on about was 'cats eyes'.

When giving birth under the influence of pethidine I kept saying “Cats purr when they’re doing this”. (That’s true, but it’s stress rather than pleasure.) Then when the doctor was doing some stitching I addressed him as “You down there embroidering my bottom”.

According to the nurses I told some extremely funny, dirty jokes. Now this is a girl who loves to hear jokes but can never remember them to retell.

These are hilarious! It hurts to laugh because I'm still recovering from a hysterectomy so I'm almost crying with laughter. I do hope we get some more candid foot in mouth anaesthetic comments. Thanks for these so far.

When I was coming round after a C Section after the birth of my twins. I asked my husband to buy some Cost pards ( post cards) to inform everyone I had given birth and my twins had arrived safely !!!

I was in my 30s and was wheeled out of the operating room, totally conked out and one of the nurses asked me where I am, to help bring me out of the anaesthetic and I told her groggily I'm on a space ship - in my head I was - then that I was in the hospital, then I said ''you're very beautiful! '' The poor lady went red and thanked me!

Lying in the ward bed, I was coming around properly, and it suddenly came to me what I'd said! Very embarrassed, I felt!

A relative was taken into hospital in an emergency and operated on, when she was back in her room she believed there was a conspiracy going on with the nurses and doctors.

She wouldn't believe anything the doctos/nurses told her and that they were recording her with hidden microphones. She would say to them 'I know what you're all up to' 'I know you're in it too' and tell her husband 'don't speak when they come in the room' she was absolutely paranoid that they were trying to get her and her husbands bank details and no matter how much they told her it was the anaesthetic she just would not believe them. This wasn't just after coming round, this was the whole day following her operation.

She couldn't believe she acted this way and apologised to all the staff because she was so embarrassed. They've put a note on her records for future ref

TwinLolly when I came round from my hysterectomy last year I joyfully remarked "I don't know where it was but I've just been in the best disco in the world!"
My beautiful Sis, who I'd lost to pancreatic cancer a few months earlier, was there with me and we were having a fabulous time.

I can only assume the radio was on in the operating theatre and I'd picked up the vibe!

My Mum who was always susceptible to odd behaviour if taking strong medication such as Morphine, told the anesthetist that he looked as if he could do with a good 'Rogering. 🫣🤣
Apparently, so the nurse told me in confidence, she didn't even reach the number 10 in the counting sequence, blurted this, and then blanked out.
We laughed about it, but didn't tell her. Although some nurses asked her if she could remember anything that happened in the op theatre, which mum found curious.

Oh dear I’m starting to worry now as I’m due to have a GA soon. I’m apt to blurt out things when I’m awake, so …..🫢

The same happened with my sister when she broke her hip. When we visited, post op, she kept pointing to passing nurses, saying things like 'Watch out for that one, she's got an agenda' and 'You can't believe anything they tell you' and 'I told them they gave me the wrong medication, but they wouldn't believe me.' Poor nurses, though I suppose they are used to it.

She also said there was a plot to put patients in tartan dresses, stored on a rail on wheels. We humored her, laughing discreetly, thinking this was part of the paranoia. Then another family member who is a hospital doctor told us that in that hospital, the lead aprons worn by the radiology staff are tartan, and are kept on a portable rail, and that was probably what my sister had seen.

The next day, she didn't remember anything about it, although, being my sister, she was still keen to tell them how to do their jobs.

When I was having my daughter I was given pethidine along with gas and air my mother, who was in the room with me, said I kept mumbling about Elvis Presley not being able to find the worm hole to get out.

40 years ago i was having an anesthetic and was discussing with the doctor that the hospital was to be closed down. I was in mid sentence when I went under and for some reason cannot forget the conversation we were having.
