Pretty much what everyone else said. But really, it all depends on what you get. For my arm surgery, I didnt receive the traditional anesthesia. They put me to sleep and did a complete nerve block on my right arm. So basically, I was taking a nap while they reattached tendons, all while my arm was numb. That was a completely different reaction then when I had my tonsils removed (when I went under normal anesthesia), because after my arm surgery, I couldnt even stand straight for 3 or 4 days, which could have been the morphene as well... ****, after the surgery, they give you a morphene clicker that gives you an injection once every 5 or 6 minutes.... I was like pressing that clicker like Ken Jennings on Jeporardy
