general anaesthetic and MS
Posted: Sun Feb 22, 2009 1:43 am
Hi guys, just curious after reading a few posts, is there a problem with a person who has MS to go under General Anaesthetic?
I know that I am not diagnosed yet but after having my last general anaesthetic in November it took a while to get me back steady and strong on my feet.
I was so weak and walking snail pace, couldn't work out why. It continued for days and days.
It was only an exploritory laparoscopy which I have one previously years before that but only a couple.
The gas at the dentist made me very weak and have difficulty walking and memory loss, slurred speech. This was after being told the gas wears off after about 5 minutes.
Appreciate any feedback please as I am undergoing a G A in April.
Thanks
Jules
