When I have surgery I have to tell them to NOTHING but double up on the knock out juice. I have a habit of waking up in the middle of procedures.
When they were taking out my appendix I had to tell the doc to hurry up because I could feel him tugging while he sutured me up.
When I had a nasal septum reconstruction I woke up while the doc was stapling tubes in my nose. That was an unpleasant experience.
On the downside, when they knocked me out for my rotator cuff surgery they did such a job with the nerve block that I had a hard time breathing for about 12 hours after surgery because I think they hit me so hard that they numbed up a lung.. lol
