Ive actually waken up during surgery before, but it wasnt exactly hyper or normal awareness. I could still get the basic gist but everything was hazy. I knew that people had their hands in my abdomen but i couldnt feel it so that was the biggest relief. I just stared up at the light until i fell asleep. Its like waking up during a nap then falling back asleep but everyones experiences differ! I think the anesthesia just hit me harder than most of those that wake up lmao

ACTUALLY experienced it! Once in a surgery I gained some consciousness, though I couldn-t open my eyes or talk, but I could clearly feel a wired ticklish sensation under my skin, it wasn-t at all painful. I felt like it-s the end of the surgery where they were wiping/cleaning anything out from the opening. Then I soon went unconscious and went back to sleep.

I woke up during an angioplasty. When I became aware I tried to talk but no one heard me. So I yelled - hey I'm awake-. After the surgery my doctor told me they really put it to because I had woken up. I could not feel anything but it was still scary!

When I broke a collar bone and chose surgery to fix it, I was aware of this phenomenon. Luckily it didn't happen and I would be way worse off if I didn't get it done. Better hope it doesn't happen when I eventually get enough money for top surgery.

Or you can choose to be awake for your surgery. That-s the newest most controlled way. It also minimizes the chances of the doctors getting sued. Since everybody wants to be rich and famous over nothing.

Nothing bc when GOD does servery he doesn't do things by chance it gets done and your a new creation simple as that. If you to a hospital the chances of you waking up are very slime. Induced comma.

I woke up during my appendix being removed due to acute appendicitis. I could not feel anything but i could see their shadow behind the curtain. I could somehow move my hands but not my feet.

if you woke up you could do some serious harm to yourself and you would probably be in major pain if you having spinal fusion and wake up you could cripple or cause your own death by moving

It happened with me. I woke up while the operation was still up and running, I could even feel the pain, not completely ofcourse but 10 to 20 percent I could. It was traumatic.

I'll bet this's every professional surgien's worst nightmare. Of course this would completely scare the crap out of the patient, but Just imagine how the surgeons feel. lmfao

Wanna know what happens if you wake up during surgery? The anesthesiologist gets fired. And possibly sued by the patient-s family. That-s all I know.

I woke up just as they were wheeling me in for a tonsillectomy. I was 5 years old at the time. I remember freaking out.
