I did...Minor surgery though...Worst part was the pre-op nurse couldn't find a vein and stuck me a bunch of different times for the IV before giving up and passing me off to the actual anesthesiologist
Damn dude , that sux , i had a nurse do that to me trying to do a blood test , she first put the strap on my arm then started tapping the inside of arm trying to get the veins up ,
she keeps tapping and rubbing my arm , looking for a good vein , i ended up pointing one out and said "this is where they normally get it from "
so she put the needle in and got half a vile full of blood that took 5min then it stopped , so she started pulling the needle in and out trying to find the vein again .
She gave up half way through that vile and said "i have lost it , i will have to start again on the other arm " .
Gee are you serious ? she said yes.
So in we go again with needle in other arm , it took 10min to fill up 6 viles , Damn that hurt !
The next day my first arm she did looked like someone hit my arm with a fucking hammer !
Yet last time i had an op , they were talking to me (the anesthesest must of just slipped it in ) did not feel anything
next thing i knew i was awake in a bed with family around , what a trip !!!!!!!
