Is there some kind of risk if they don’t intubate me, why wouldn’t I be happy? Not everyone who gets general anesthesia gets intubated. I wasn’t during my last top surgery but that was less then an hour. My mom wasn’t intubated during her hysterectomy. I’m just trying to understand why they do it with some people and surgeries and not others even if they are all going under general anesthesia.
With my first surgery the first thing I said when I woke up was “my throat hurts” you can’t feel it when your asleep but you can feel the after effects of it. And it sucks. My throat hurt for several days.
