inwiththenew 14 Posted December 6, 2014 Ok when you go in the OR you will have probably already been given a little versed. It helps you relax. You will move onto the OR table and they will put monitors on you. They will give you oxygen through a mask. Then they will put propofol into your iv you will be sleep in a matter of seconds. After you are sleep they will put an ET tube into your throat. You will barely remember going in the room. Thats the way the meds work. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck They put the tube down and a charge catheter in while I was out. I remember the mask and counting maybe 4-5 numbers than out. Woke up groggy in recovery. Try not to stress they know what they're doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kimpossible67 608 Posted December 7, 2014 I think everyone's reaction is the same when you awake in recovery. "It's over???" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
