Tyler's Grandstanding
"Donald Munro" wrote in message m... Nick Burns wrote: Yeah, really. I just HATE the misnomer "pain killers" since anyone that has not ever had serious pain seems to think that medicine can *always* take away pain, right? Then again, I try to cut people slack since even a lot of MDs are misinformed about pain. And they often have side effects as well. I recently had an operation to put a pin in a broken collar bone and the pain killer they injected me with after the operation (without asking me if I wanted it) caused me to have to stay overnight at the hospital instead of going home on the same day as it messed up my blood pressure or something. Must be becaue my bodies not used to all these narcotic chemicals as I don't There is a very good chance you would have been sorry if they had not done that. I don't know if they debriefed you but sometimes there are indications in the operating room that you may wake up with very high levels of pain. The anesthesiologists are typically the best educated with regard to pain and the medicines and was likely the one that resommended it, probably based on the medicines he had to give you will you were in surgery. The medicine used to keep you asleep was also an opiate (narcotic, but I try not to use that word since it has been used by law enforcement with negative connotations and is also used to cover a wider scope of drugs) coctail so it is not as if you would have gotten out of there without any opoid medicine in your body. drink (alcohol) either. And I couldn't persuade any of the nurses to practise their pubic shaving skills on me either. It can get boring in there, eh? You were lucky since a lot of times they don't even use shaving cream. The lucky ones are asked if they want to do it themselves. |
