i was wondering if anyone else besides me was a bad patient during the heart cath and pre and post surgery.
As most know they dont normally knock you completely out for a heart cath. Well after my 1 dose of verced Dr. Samuels proceeded to stick me with the needle in thigh. Everytime he would stick me I would kick him. He said it wasnt a kick like your shooing a dog away from something, he said I would cock and kick and said it didnt feel good on his shouder and rips where I would connect. He finally had to completely put me under.
I dont remember the incident the next day in OR right before surgery but it must have been a gooden. Dad said when they first could see me in ICU the nureses told them I had a bad reputation as a fighter and wildman. Each arm and leg was strapped down to the hospital bed. They wouldnt unstrap me until they knew I wasnt going to try and whoop them. I was thinking to myself that it hurt too bad to try and fight right then. The last thing I remember in the OR and before I woke up in ICU was a woman nurse hollering out "Would somebody please knock him out". Then things started getting really deep and far away and I black out. I guess I was just dazed and still had some fight in me. I was told I tagged someone in the head.
I do remember fighting like crazy when I had the chest tube surgery a week later. I vaguely remember sitting up in the bed swinging my arms and tussling with the nurses. That 30 min surgery and 1 hr recovery took about 1 hour surgery and 4 hours recovery for me.
I guess the anesthesia and other durgs they use does not mix good with me. In my surgery for my shoulder I was telling loud nasty jokes when they gave me something to relax me in the OR before surgery.
