@jAsE PS, if you've never been tested for sleep apnea, you could also die in your sleep.
Take it from me... as someone who's had his tonsils removed, wisdom teeth removed, have had multiple endoscopies, and more....
You WANT to be under for those procedures. And say you do die in your sleep. Its better to die surrounded with doctors who might revive you with paddles and monitor you...
Also consider the people who overdose on opiates and other drugs every day....
That's why I say being under for surgery isn't so bad. Just don't lie on the medical forms, and make sure they know your weight. 😂
Its scary, and were fragile, but were also not fragile. Y'know? -
@jAsE depends on the cause and how much anaesthetic they used. I think if they overdose you, you die peacefully...
Id be lying to say im fearless about going under, but I get nervous in airplanes, inside buildings in earthquake zones, so eventually I learned to tune that out
Everyone dies... Its the slow deaths that freak me out most, like being trapped under building rubble for 12 hours.
But yeah... minor surgery isn't too bad. For the wisdom teeth and tonsil procedure I believe they use a smaller dose so you're barely under -
@DavidKevork You shouldn't trust doctors too much, either. They probably hate me, BC I ask too many questions, but I always make sure to double check doses... injections into the wrong arm...😂
Hope your recovery goes well -
Korvax55517y@jAsE it wasnt deep sleep, just light sleep which i felt like sleeping for a few moment and then i was around 90% awake and the needle has changed from my left hand to my right hand without noticing

620hun81887y@jAsE it is a risk, but not a serious one. You're much more likely to die in a traffic accident.
Went for a hand surgery, the anesthetic doctor is learning swift and then he put the needle in the wrong hand.
Lesson learned: never trust a programmer with your life
