As a compliment to the thread about near death experiences I’d really like hearing people’s experiences of losing consciousness under general anesthesia and what’s it like coming back.

Also interested of things anesthetists may have noticed about this during their career.

    Haha don’t have FOMO for surgery, mate. A life lived without it is a good one.

    They can still wreak havoc on your teeth even if they don’t come down. They tend to migrate and move and that can mess up your bite. So not likely now presuming you’re older but it’s a chance when you’re younger and still growing etc.

      Yeah I’m 30, now. I presume they’re just chilling, lol. Has anyone’s come down after that point, do you think?

        Not that I saw when I worked there. My impacted wisdoms only became an issue in my 30s though, so who knows?!
