Im not a doctor but my sister was under and said "make this quick, I need to get back to my unicorn before the vortex closes".

I was undergoing surgery on my leg. They gave me a general anaesthtic shot and prepared to insert a catheter. As they grabbed my nether regions I raised up and said "Wait! Wait until I am out before inserting the catheter".

After my endoscopy, my surgeon said I was loudly singing some song in another language and made the nurses laugh. Confused, as I only speak English, I asked what language it was. He said French....and then I remembered that in high school, I had memorized the French National Anthem for extra credit and had performed it with much aplomb in front of my history class (and apparently to the post-surgery team as well).

To be fair, it is not a song one easily forgets after learning it in French class. I'm 71 and I *still* break out a chorus or two from time to time. fr

My girlfriend after wisdom teeth removal:
Do you think they call it sand because it's between the sea and the land?
God love her, she was a riot the whole way home.
Before we get into all the hilarious post-surgery rambling, it helps to understand what anesthesia actually does. In simple terms, it’s a group of medications designed to keep your body from registering pain during a medical procedure. These drugs temporarily shut down the nerve signals that would normally travel from the part of your body being worked on to your brain. Because those signals never arrive, your brain stays blissfully unaware of whatever is happening. It’s like your body hits a temporary “mute button,” letting doctors do what they need to do without you feeling a thing.

Had a guy start shouting that he loved me, then became super worried and started whispering, “*But don’t tell my wife...*”
Unfortunately, she was holding his hand.

Just before my open heart surgery, I'm told I declared my love to three nurses, an anesthetist, and a surgeon. They were quite entertained and promptly told my wife at her first briefing. (It stretched to over 10 hours.) Luckily, she said she'd keep me.

My best friend was having surgery and he happened to have an incredibly attractive anesthesiologist. Dr tells him to count backwards from ten, and he adds "imagine yourself on a beautiful beach." Friend's last words before falling unconscious were "...with you."

I hugged my physical therapist- who I'd met once - in the parking lot post-surgery. Why isn't that stuff legal? I've never been nicer nor happier.

While getting my wisdom teeth out - I found out I asked all 5 female dental assistants to marry me. To try and seal the deal, I did the splits in the dentist chair and told them "Flexible redheads make good [love]".
I'm also 100% gay.

I would have indignantly said “no!” but I’ll happily use that excuse to explain how I came to marry my ex and why I stayed so long. Obviously, someone else was using the brain cell.

After getting her wisdom teeth out, my cousin was having a difficult time waking from the anesthetics. She apparently knocked the pad of paper out of the nurse's hand and said, 'You need to write on a whiteboard, save the trees. SAVE THE TREES, WOMAN."
Not all anesthesia works the same way, and that’s where things get interesting. Some forms simply block sensation in one small part of your body so you can stay awake and aware. Others work on a deeper level, quieting your entire brain so you drift into a peaceful, dreamless sleep while surgeons take care of the heavy lifting. The method depends entirely on what kind of procedure you’re having: tiny stitches and major surgeries obviously require very different approaches. Whether you're awake, drowsy, or fully unconscious, the goal is the same: no pain and no panic.
#7
When I woke from having my wisdom teeth removed, I asked the nurse to take me to the beach and release me back into the ocean so I could be with my people. She kept refusing, so I started accusing her of fiddling with me whilst I was asleep.
I ended up getting moved to a different recovery area, where I was then asked to be quiet because I thought I was listening to Nicki Minaj, but infact it was just me slaughtering the lyrics to an imaginary beat.
#8
I had a lump removed from my [chest] a few years ago. The table they had me on was shaped like a T, so my arms were outstretched. As I was passing out, I said to the nurses, "I feel like Jesus." They had to tell me about it when I awoke.
#9
I sang 'you are my sunshine' at the top of my lungs while being wheeled into the recovery room after my knee surgery. My dad, along with my (now ex) husband could hear me clear across the other end of the hallway, even through the snickers and giggles of the nurses. The surgeon still calls me sunshine when we see each other around town.
Local anesthesia is the simplest of the bunch. It numbs just one specific area of your body, leaving the rest of you fully awake and functioning. Doctors often use it for quick or minimally invasive procedures: think skin biopsies, dental work, or a fast fix on a small injury. You can talk, breathe normally, and stay completely aware while the numbed spot gets treated. Out of all the types, this one causes the least post-procedure silliness.
Sedation is that strange middle zone where you’re not fully asleep, but you’re definitely not fully alert either. It relaxes your body and slows your brain just enough to make you comfortable and chilled out during the procedure. Many people describe it as being so cozy that they could fall asleep at any moment, yet still able to respond if someone speaks to them. It’s often used for things like wisdom tooth removal, heart catheterizations, or certain screenings. Most people under sedation barely remember what happened at all.
#10
While having dental work done under the influence of laughing gas, I (female, mid-teens at the time) tried very hard to flirt with the (also female, married) dentist. I was not in any way subtle. She was not at all amused... awkward.
Also, not anesthesia but Dilaudid: I called my husband from the ER once rambling about how totally amazing it was that we have fingers- "They're so helpful, and they're like, always there! They're like little friends that you get to carry around with you everywhere." It didn't take him too long to figure out they had me high as a kite but he was super confused at first.
#11
After my sister got her wisdom teeth taken out, the dentist told her she couldn't run for a week. Her response, "that's stupid, I don't run with my teeth."
#12
While I was in the prep bay before surgery, I got a jumper shot of some kind of medical barbiturates, to ensure the anesthesia takes fully.
I was convinced that the 5 pointed star shapes on the curtains were starfish.
Not only were the starfish moving, they were dancing. Specifically, the waltz. And I told this to every single person that walked by.
"They're not just dancing. They're *waltzing*".
Regional anesthesia takes things a step further by numbing a large portion of your body rather than a tiny spot. Instead of just dulling a fingertip or small area, it can block sensation in an entire limb or everything from the waist down. It’s commonly used during childbirth with epidurals or for surgeries involving arms, legs, or the lower body. You’ll remain awake, but you won’t feel anything in the region being worked on, which can be both comforting and surreal.
#13
After oral surgery my fiance put me in the car and took me to get a milkshake. The place next to where he decided to go was called Wings & Things. I was sobbing profusely (for some reason the anesthesia made me cry) and said "what other things do they sell there?? WHAT THINGS?!".

I'm sorry but what? Did she take you to get MILKshake after an oral surgery? Whenever my tooth was extraced or had an oral surgery I was told not to drink anything hot or anything dairy realted for days... Mainly not milk related...
highwaycrossingfrog 2 days ago
That's out of date advice - people used to think dairy could increase nausea or interfere with antibiotics, but actually cold, soft foods like milkshake are ideal because they both soothe and contain protein, which is helpful for healing.

After getting hernia repair surgery I semi-consciously yelled at the nurses about my clothes:
Me: "MY PANTS. WHERE ARE THEY."
Nurse: "Sir, they're next to the -"
Me: "TAKE ME TO THE ROOM WHERE YOU'RE KEEPING MY PANTS."
Nurse: "They're right over -"
Me: "MY PANTS WOMAN. GOOD GOD.".

I got my wisdom teeth out too. Had an IV, for the first time, I was 16 y/o.
All I remember was feeling GREAT, I mean seriously amazing.
When I sorta came too, I remember asking how much longer til it's over. And they said "we're done!"
The nurse brought me out to the car with my parents, and helped me out to the car. And on the car ride home I asked "why was the nurse was so friendly?"
My parents told me that I confessed my love for short haired brunettes, and that she would be my wife because "she was perfect" and "I loved her."
Haha...I had no game at the time.
General anesthesia is the big one: the full lights-out experience. It shuts down your awareness completely, putting you into a deep, controlled sleep where you can’t feel pain or respond to anything around you. This is reserved for major surgeries involving the chest, abdomen, or head, where you absolutely shouldn’t be conscious for obvious reasons. Doctors carefully monitor everything, from your breathing to your heart rate, to keep you safe. When you wake up, you usually have no memory of what happened.

My boyfriend, as he was being wheeled into recovery, yelled to me "honey! You can call me Shrek from now on!"
He has no idea why he wanted me to call him Shrek.
I had to have surgery a few months later, and when I had woken up, I called my boyfriend on the hospital phone and told him he could call me Fiona from now on.

I was getting a tooth extracted and was really nervous. The dentist said he'd turn the gas up and I'd just fall asleep, then it would be over.
I still remember asking him if he liked chicken and dumpling soup.
Him: "It's delicious, and why do you ask?"
...
Me: "Because that is what I look like [undressed]! Pale and lumpy!"

Not a dr, but a roller derby girl who witnessed teammate break their leg.

I was put on the green whistle when paramedics came because I had what was eventually worked out to be ovarian torsion. It did nothing for the pain, nor make me say anything loopy, which was for the best because I was already embarrassed about how much I was screaming (illogical, I know).

After seeing the reply from Huddo's sister I googled "green whistle." This is what I found on one of the sites that popped up: "Medical Developments International (MDI) is an Australian company that manufactures Penthrox, commonly known as the 'green whistle'. Box and vial of the d**g methoxyflurane – the pain-relieving ingredient used in Penthrox™. The pain-relieving d**g Penthrox™ (commonly known as the green whistle). Penthrox is an analgesic used by medical practitioners, the defence forces, ambulance paramedics, sports clubs and surf lifesavers to administer emergency pain relief."

Even though anesthesia feels temporary, the medications can linger in your system long after the procedure ends. Depending on what type you received: sedation, regional, or general, your body and brain may stay foggy for hours. That’s why doctors always warn people not to work, sign paperwork, or drive until the effects have fully worn off. Your coordination, reaction time, and judgment just aren’t back to normal yet. On the other hand, if you only had local anesthesia, you’re usually good to go once your doctor gives the okay.

We had the same family doctor for over 45 years. He actually delivered me, some sixty-odd years ago.
When I was a middle-aged man myself, during my very last checkup before he was to retire, he invited me into his private office, where he took half an hour to reminisce and laugh with me about a bunch of family stuff. He informed me that I had actually been one of his very first solo deliveries as a young attending, and that he had been a little nervous on my mom's behalf.
He reminded me that by all indications, I has promised to be a rather tricky delivery: I was a week overdue, I was her first pregnancy, I was a pretty large baby (9.5 lbs), that Mom was a very tiny woman, and that she had already been in labour with me for more than 24 hours. He told me he had been about to suggest to Mom that a Caesarian might be in order, when I suddenly decided it was time to bust a move.
Mom had had a funny reaction to her epidural, and between that and sheer exhaustion from her lengthy labour, the doc could tell that she was fading in and out of lucidity during my actual delivery, which took a while even after I had become motivated. And in addition to all the other complications, early in the process the doctor had also needed to digitally coax me into the perfect position to make my grand entrance.
Lucid or not, Mom certainly remembered *that* part of the procedure.
Because according to the doctor, just after he'd cut my cord, and before she had fully come round again, my dishcloth-limp, sweat-drenched, exhausted mother - normally a very gentle, unaggressive and soft-spoken woman - had suddenly grabbed him by his upper arm with a grip of steel, heaved herself halfway off the table, locked eyes with him from about six inches away, and yelled, **"DID YOU AT LEAST TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF BEFORE YOU WALKED IN?"** Then her eyes had rolled back in their sockets, and she'd flopped back onto the delivery table, out like a light for the next ten minutes.
Doc chuckled that the mat nurse had had to leave the delivery room for a bit at that point, because she'd [wetted] herself a little - so he ended up washing me off and wrapping me up in a receiving blanket himself.
To the end of her days, Mom's steadfast claim was that she has absolutely no recollection of *ever* saying anything like that to him, and was horrified by the possibility that she had. Nonetheless, Doc told me that *this* was that incident that had made Mom - and me - two of his very favourite patients.

My boyfriend was in a motorcycle accident and was in the ICU coming out of anesthesia after surgery on his hip. The lady in the room next to him has some odd lung issues and they had to use a vacuum tube to suck stuff out (imagine the one at the dentist’s office). So I hear the nurse tell her, through the very thin wall, "It's time for your oral suction." BF looks up from the bed at me, smiles through the haze, and says, "Hey baby, how about some oral suction." I then locked eyes with his mom across the bed and sighed. That was 2 years ago and she still brings it up.

Oh, come on, with a set-up line like that, you'd have to be superhuman not to make a joke of it...that's in the finest traditions of guy humour.
The reason people act so ridiculously after anesthesia is pretty simple: the drugs temporarily scramble the brain. They mix up your memory, blur your awareness, and make your thoughts bounce around like loose marbles. This creates a perfect recipe for strange comments, emotional outbursts, and random confessions.
Part of the silliness comes from the way these medications interfere with the parts of your brain responsible for coordination and clear thinking. You might forget where you are, repeat the same question five times, or start talking about things that make zero sense. The stress of surgery, plus any pain medication still in your system, adds another layer to the confusion. Even people who are usually very calm or serious can become giggly, overly dramatic, or deeply sentimental. Once the drugs wear off, most people don’t remember a thing; they just get to hear the stories later.

(not a medical professional) A young person in my life recently had her wisdom teeth yanked. When she came to, she accused the nurse of stealing her tongue. Her mom and the nurse just laughed.
#23
So, I'm a pretty big guy and I have an extremely high tolerance to medicine. When I went in to get my wisdom teeth out, they gassed me and hit me with what was supposed to be the knockout needle, but I just kept talking. About pie I think (it was relatively close to thanksgiving). So they gassed me and stuck me again, and although inhibited and pretty [messed up], I wasn't out yet. So I leaned in real close to the doctor and slurred "just bring out the nurse with the hammer. " Then out I went.

According to my nurses when I went under surgery, I went in demanding to know the name of the robot that was operating on me, and afterwards, I wanted its Facebook contact information. They never got it to me though.

Just had surgery with the DaVinci robot. I said that I hoped that it wasn't named, "Hal".
And then there’s emergence delirium, the most dramatic part of the whole experience. It’s that foggy, half-awake phase where your brain tries to switch back on but misfires a little. Adults can experience it, but it’s especially common in children, who sometimes cry, laugh, or babble as they regain consciousness. Symptoms range from mild confusion to full-on emotional chaos, though it usually passes quickly. Most people return to normal within a few hours as the medications fade out of their system. Until then, they might say things their family will never let them forget.

I had jaw surgery last year and started to get really scared as I sat in my hospital bed waiting to be wheeled into surgery. My mom was with me and I told her how much I wished my dog was there because snuggling her always makes me feel better. I guess having my dog on my mind turned into some weird thoughts because apparently I started crying out of the fear that they were going to give me dog teeth.

When I went to get my wisdom teeth out, the staff were chatting about their upcoming trip to Mexico for a doctors without borders type thing. I get put under, my teeth are removed, and I'm set up in a super comfy recliner to wake up. As I was coming to, one of the nurses came over to check on me. I'm not sure what I said, but he mentioned the trip to Mexico again. I got very serious and told him he really shouldn't go. There are dragons in Mexico. He started laughing as I continued to insist they'd all be eaten by dragons if they went on their trip.
These posts remind us just how unpredictable and unintentionally funny people can be while waking up from anesthesia. It’s a strange mix of science, confusion, and comedy playing out in real time. Which moment made you pause, laugh, or think?

Working in a operating room, 90% or patients are so groggy and zoned out we don't hear much from them. The funny stuff usually happens in recovery, and I tend to avoid awake patients like the plague when I can. However we once had a girl waking up after the case who still had the LMA in her mouth. Once she started to choke on it a bit the anasthesiaologists yanks it out saying "no, no, don't swallow that." She then, without skipping a beat says out loud, "well, a girl doesn't hear that too often..." We all broke into tears laughing. Also one day we were working with an Asian anasthesiaologist one day and we brought a patient into the room for a case. He already had been medicated an had a block put in, so he was half way out the door mentally. As he lays there he says he doesn't want it to hurt. The surgeon says to him, "ohh don't worry, Dr. Chen's got the good stuff ready for you." The patient then just looks up at Dr. Chen and in the most racist voice you could imagine, he says; "OOOOHHH, number one, combo special! Beef broccoli!!!" We immediately lost it in the room.
My personally favorite wake ups are the teenage, and early 20's males. Most often they wake up in the OR with wild eyes, confused and ready to fight everyone around them. It's always fun to pile around them, hold all their limbs down and yell at them, "Its ok! Go back to sleep!". Then the eyes roll back and it's off to sleepy time.

Not a medical professional but the patient.
As they were prepping me for surgery, they put a mask on me for laughing gas (?) so they can put an IV in my hand (because I’m a hard stick). As the laughing gas was taking effect, the doctors and nurses turned into cartoon frogs. Since they took a few tries to get the IV in, I thought frogs were pinching my hand and kept on asking “why are frogs pinching me?” Once they got it in, I looked up and there was a nurse with glasses. I then said “frogs aren’t supposed to wear glasses” and proceed to try to grab the glasses from her.
#32
According to my mother, when I was going under before surgery I apparently loudly asked: "So, what do you guys do with the stuff that you take out of people? You burn it? Cuz, like, if you burn something it makes smoke stuff which goes in the clouds and then when it rains there's gotta be some human bits in the water. So if you burn it and it later snows that must mean that some boy will catch a snowflake on his tounge and it might be part of my intesti.....".

Apparently when I was getting my wisdom teeth out, the anesthesia started to wear off and I woke up. I was really confused because there were people with doctor masks and stuff all around me and I knew nobody. I got scared, so I tried to stand up and leave, and I remember a hand shoving me back down saying, "Sorry, you're not done yet." They must've pumped me with more anesthesia after that because I don't remember this, but the doctor said I burst into tears after they shoved me back in the chair and I sobbed for 10-15 minutes in the middle of the surgery while saying, "I'm sleepy, I'm so sleepy.".

I'm not a medical professional however thought I may as well share:
I was in hospital once for a day surgery operation on my back and as I woke up from the operation I started to seriously panic as I thought I had slept in and was late for college. I tried to get up while still in the theatre and the doctors were desperately trying to make me understand I wasn't late for college. Then, the whole time I was being moved back to the recovery ward I lay as still as possible because I was sure I had been abducted by aliens. When I was offered food or drink I refused to drink anything but a cup of tea because for some reason I thought aliens couldn't poison tea!!

One time I went under anesthesia, I kept asking if the mask they had on me was just oxygen. They told me it was, but I didn't believe them, and I was very concerned that it was nitrous. I tried to keep asking, but I don't think my mouth was actually letting out the sounds. I heard my mom complaining about her coworkers as I was waking up. I threatened to beat them up.
Another time I went under anesthesia, I just started laughing right before passing out. I remember the whole room of medical professionals grinning a little bit as I went under. I woke up laughing, too, and one of the nurses there was still grinning. He told me I was a cheap drunk as he walked me out of the building.
