Everyone is afraid of getting sick. Especially if you get a serious illness and have to undergo surgery. Before the surgery, surgeons talk about many risks, and for the average person, there is no fear. Some are worried about money, some are worried about safety, the problems the surgeon talks about, will they actually happen? Some are also afraid of pain. But these fears are unnecessary. As an anesthesiologist, I can well understand patients’ fears. Professionally, I can totally understand everyone’s fear. But at work, I can’t say it all. How? I don’t dare to beat my chest even if I want to comfort my patients. Some people say that anesthesia will make people stupid. Isn’t general anesthesia scary? This worry, there is no need. There are at least tens of millions of surgical anesthesia cases in the world every year, and under normal circumstances, there are no cases of making people stupid. Except for special circumstances. But that has nothing to do with anesthesia itself. As long as you have to do the surgery, and you trust the hospital, feel free to do it. Some people say that anesthesiologists talk so much about risks, are they trying to avoid responsibility? No! Because all of these scenarios can happen. I have to make it clear to you. Just like when you are flying in an airplane, even if it is one in a million that you are going to crash, I have to explain it to you. I’d be making a mistake if I didn’t tell you. Besides, the process of talking is a reminder to the doctor that we can understand the condition better. Some people say that anesthesiologists can’t afford to be offended. Give you less anesthesia and it hurts like hell. This kind of worry is also unnecessary. As far as I know, there are no anesthesiologists who specialize in harming people. Even if some patients do not respect us, we do not dare to joke with other people’s lives, and if something happens, we can not escape. It can be said that we doctors still have a basic sense of responsibility. You can rest assured! There are many more questions, so I’ll write this much first. Anyway, since you have to have surgery, you should accept anesthesia openly. Anesthesia, so that surgery is no longer a nightmare!
