ACTIONCREED 0 Posted May 10, 2013 Does anybody have a memory of waking up from the surgery with the breathing tubes in their throat? This is my biggest fear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yazzy 105 Posted May 10, 2013 YES,, I made sure I told dr. and anestisialogist(n I know i spelled nit wrong) please take out before i wake up or I will have a panic attack... I was told they need to keep in but will take out while i was waking up and i wouldnt feel anything.. I didnt feel or remember them taking it out ... So by all means let them kno ... 1 ACTIONCREED reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frumpynomore 204 Posted May 10, 2013 I didn't have any when I woke up. I think (just my thoughts) with the VSG you're not under long enough to warrant the doc keeping them in until or after you wake up. I haven't heard of anyone waking up with the breathing tube still in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
makemyownluck 785 Posted May 10, 2013 No memory of the breathing tube - BUT before they put my out, they were tying my arms down and THAT was weird. I would have panicked, but I was taken off to sleep about 2 seconds after that... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
