Good for him!! I've skipped anesthesia for colonoscopies and mouth surgery. NOT fun doing a cololoscopy that way and I've done several because I have dangerous reactions to anesthesia.
Anaesthesia can easily accelerate the road to dementia, another fact the medical industry chooses not to study, but one that good doctors will often recognize.
Oh wow, did not know that. I just don't ever get it now that I know it's dangerous for me. Can't even have novacain as my whole body starts shaking uncontrolably and my throat swells and my mouth stays numb for a full day. My two kids were born with zero drugs used. And I had to get stitched up after, I've become very accustomed to pain over the years. A fairly easy colonoscopy without drugs is tolorable, although uncomfortable. But when they have to start removing something and fill you with gas so they can work in there, oh God feels like you are going to die.
I've heard several people around say that they're doing more and more operations with just local anesthetic or with a longer-lasting local and a shorter-term general (or even just a sedative) to keep them out for the shortest possible duration. A friend had invasive hip surgery a few months ago and they give him a couple different locals and just sedated him during the surgery. He was pretty much back to normal by the mid afternoon (late morning surgery).
It's also got some scary ties to massive heart problems. Of course, it's hard to determine if it's the cause of the problems, or if the people who undergo anesthesia are simply more likely to have heart problems to begin with.
More research needed but nope, let's just ignore facts we don't like.
Yeah, it's one of those unwritten rules that doctors know, but only disclose off the record. I think it's from lack of oxygen to the brain, similar to "almost drowning," but anesthesia is powerful stuff, so who really knows in any individual case. The clearest example I have is from my friends mother who rapidly deteriorated over from very active and fully alert to obvious forgetfulness and beginning dementia signs over the next 8 months, losing her independent living as a result.
On my first day at the school of public health our Dean gave a speech and told us that the test they do where they simply test your poop is as reliable as a colonoscopy while being super cheap and non invasive.
Yep. Long story short about 10 years ago I found out my colonoscopies destroyed my health and I haven't had one since. There are stool tests I can do and there is a camera pill you can swallow to look for polyps. But overall I haven't needed either as an extreeme lifestyle change pretty much healed me.
The stool test that you can mail in from home is notoriously unreliable with false positives. In the end (no pun intended) you'll have to have the procedure anyways, so maybe skip the cost and time wasted.
Of course....they could be lying about that, as well.
The colonoscopy is dangerous, they fail to inform people just how dangerous it is. It passes on disease from one patient to the other because it's impossible to completely steralize the equipment. The prep is very dangerous to your immune system, you don't want to be drinking that stuff. I've had several lifetimes worth of colonoscopies done, and have had to endure them with no meds. It was a massive pain in the ass (pun intended). I'll never have another one again now that I know what caused the polyps and fixed the issue. If for any reason those old symptoms return (which i highly doubt as i've corrected the root cause), I'll be swallowing the camera pill for verification before I have a colonoscopy. And I'll attempt to shrink them through natural medicine first.
It's more accurate than you think. The modern one can detect 92 percent of cancers and 40 percent of polyps. It is an excellent screening tool given that it's cheap, noninvasive, not harmful, no risks, no sedation. No reason not to do it first rather than having people get "routine" colonoscopies.
The stool test is a scam by the insurance companies.
Normally a colonoscopy is considered a preventative procedure and fully covered under insurance.
However, if you do the stool test and it shows up positive (or false positive as is likely) then when you go to get the follow up colonoscopy the insurance companies consider it treatment and not preventative. So they don’t cover it the same way and you end up paying far more out of pocket.

Open heart surgery causes a known hit to Iq especially in men. Unsure if it’s the anesthesia or the heart/lung bypass machine.

Glad to hear you're doing better!!

IIRC, Obama did something similar so he wouldn't give Biden the reins.
FYI: we're calling them "whips" now.
I'll show myself out.
to be fair 0bamas ass is so enlarged from michaels regular poundings so he does not even feel the procedure anymore.
LOL, Michael probably performed the procedure with his special "probe"
They have to use one of Musk’s Boring Machines to examine Hussein’s poop chute.
