I had carpal tunnel surgery 11 days ago and hernia surgery 2 days ago. I had general anesthesia both times. I have had 7 surgeries with general anesthesia and the only problem I have had is with Morphine. I don't recovery quickly at all when given Morphine, so i now request propophol (sp) and I come right out of it. The first couple surgeries I was a little concerned about going under, but I guess I am used to it now.
