Re: Spinal/Epidural anesthesia: Is this SAFE??

What's interesting is I do not remember them giving me the spinal. So they must have knocked me out or close to before hand.... Nor do I recall anything like not being able to move my legs AFTERWARDS but during the surgery I could not move any part of me ...I do remember I had a catheter though. I was told I would be awake for the surgery so something had been given to me and it was my doc who told me he thought it was morphine administered through the spinal... I have no clue how all this works since I never looked into things then as I do now...So I really could not say what all they did to me.. I just know my head hurt so bad I wanted to die just about...
The pain started in my back and was only there about a day as it traveled up into my head where it stayed for a solid week after leaving the hospital (4 days later...) My surgery was on April Fools' Day too... wouldn't ya know.. LOL
I had a vaginal .. partial hysterectomy (they left my fallopian tubes and ovaries) which ten years after that I had developed cysts on the fallopian tubes and they did a lapriscope to remove them but again left the ovaries... I was so surprised they didn't take what all was left... I had general anesthesia for that one...

A little story about Epidurals..

Back when I was having babies we were not offered such things... but both my daughters had them and could not feel anything from the waist down and the one actually delivered her 2nd daughter without anyone knowing it. She did not feel the baby deliver and had mentioned something felt a bit odd...we lifted her sheet and there was the baby already born ...Talk about the nurses and doctors freaking out ... oh my goodness ... instruments went flying the doc was mad at the nurse although the nurse had just checked her 2 minutes before so I vouged for her when I saw the doc trying to pin this on her... It angered me they were so concerned about covering their backs that it took away from the miracle that had just been born... Thank goodness the baby was ok but for my daughters 3rd they made sure she was not overly medicated with whatever it is they put in that epidural.
