Everyone kind of react differently to anesthesia. For my case, I found that I get nausous. For my second surgery, I made sure that I put on the nausea patch (Tresderma Scoop).
Most of these people has nausea or vomiting. So, if you have a bit of a sensitive stomach, ask your surgeon if you can put on a nausea patch before surgery. That way, the drug will remain in your system for a while.
My first surgery, it took me a little less than 2 hours to recover, and had a bit of groggy feeling for quite a while. My second surgery took me 30 mins to recover, and I was walking around and feeling great. This was pretty weird.
So, like I said, people react differently. It also depends what the doctors will do to "knock you out". The first time I had Propofol (white stuff, used very often to anethesize animals). The second time I had the mask.
Hugs, and I'm looking forward on reading about your journey! PICTURES PICTURES!!
