My three general surgeries (two knee, one nose - throat) were all marked by interesting reactions to anesthesia. After my third one, (nose-throat) the doc told me that I wouldn't stop moving on the table (I have an anxiety disorder and being paralyzed is one of my phobias), and that it took more to knock me out than any patient he'd ever seen. The dr was probably 60!

He also told me that coming out of surgery, while they were trying to get me still, I punched two nurses hard enough that they had to get medical help themselves! I was mortified, and still am. When I was in junior high, I was the big kid who the other kids picked on, because I was so much taller / bigger than anyone else, but I wouldn't hit anybody.

I guess I thought I was fighting for my life after surgery since I had stuff stuffed in my nose, my throat was swollen, and people were trying to hold me down.
