general anasthesia.

Post by hairyfairy »

Are there any general anasthaetics that are safe for apoe4 carriers? I do worry about what would happen if I had to have an operation & the surgeon refused to carry it out with other forms of pain relief. Iv`e had several general anasthaetics in the past, plus taken a lot of benzodiazapines, & I worry that Iv`e already done irepperable damage to my brain.
