I've been knocked out!

For the first time I have been knocked out a couple of hours ago, so I apologize if what I type makes no sense. It has been quite a new experience for me. They were just saying I would feel a little scratch and then I heard talking where my initial thoughts were along the lines of "Err. Who is talking and where am I etc". Job done! :D
For anyone who is nurvous of the experience (I do admit I was pretty nurvous) don't be. You don't even remember or know anything about it. You don't even feel getting drousy... It is straight aaay like a switch!
I habe to say well done to those who worked on me today.
I have been instructed to avoid working with anything sharp or dangerous etc for a while (48 hrs) and I am still numb as they froze the area. This will wear off but no pain yet.... I'm still not really with it! :D Hopefully I won't get too much pain when the numbness wears off. If I do it is painkiller time and go to bed time. I am so glad I was knocked out as I've experienced the other way and I get panicky these days with that.

Only write this to reassure others not to worry. You don't feel a thing and know nothing about it!

Ah, conversations with an anaesthetist. :D

“You may feel a bit of a prick.”

“I’ll put you to sleep shortly, in the meantime enjoy these class A drugs.”
Me: “That’s some good shi.....................”

Last few years I've been told "you might feel a little prick" so many times I'm starting to get a complex! :shock:

I must have missed something, didn’t know you were going to be put under for anything.

Yew. I have been waiting about four years or just over. The appointment was meant to be next month, but had a phonecall yesterday as someone else couldn't make it.

Hopefully it was successful and you’re on the mend.
