Or just tell the anesthesiologist what drugs you take on a regular basis like you're supposed to.
It's kinda besides the point. The reason we pay anaesthesiologists so much is because dosing incorrectly is lethal.
Telling them you smoke weed doesnt just shift the amount required to knock you out, it lowers the threshold of what is safe.
An anaesthesiologist is riding the razors edge of consciousness, and is trying to keep the dosage as low as possible.
Waking up in the middle of surgery is more common than most people expect, and most people who wake up are not actually aware they woke up at all because of the amnesia inducing drugs they use (usually benzos).
Fun fact for those still reading:
It's not really like "I forgot what happened", it's more like "I never remembered in the first place"; consider a PlayStation without a memory card.
Aka anterograde amnesia, not filing things into long-term memory.
So no saving to disk, got it.
I'd argue you had a bad anaesthesiologist
Should've strapped you the first time.
Unless in the US, in which case if you wake up you may be in jail. Decisions, decisions...
there's still doctor patient confidentiality, even if trump is slowly eroding that for example for abortion.
Please don’t spread misinformation, I’ve taken someone to the ER high in the Deep South (probably highest risk place to be caught high or with drugs in the US) and disclosed what they’d taken, all he got was proper treatment. Taking drugs should never stop you from seeking medical help if you need it, the doctors and nurses don’t want to snitch on you for it.
