A listener asked: her mom, in her 60s, felt "not herself" for weeks after two surgeries under general anesthesia, and now she's scheduled for a facelift. Should the family push back? We've seen post-op confusion in a patient of ours, and she came back to her normal self. That's why we require medical clearance, review every medication and ask about past reactions to anesthesia. A different anesthetic, a shorter time under, or a different plan can mean a much smoother experience. Tell your surgeon and the whole care team.
