> I've been intubated for elective surgery. Given versed first to create twilight sleep, Once the tube inserted a general anesthetic administered. Once done. Extubated brought to recovery room and soon discharged to home. I was fine. No delusions for me. Not even groggy. Pulse oximetry made sure oxygen levels normal first then driven home by husband.

I wasn't in for surgery and was 'out of it' for 2 1/2 weeks at least. Not making it up either. I'm glad it went smooth for you. Sounds like they also told you what was going to happen before it happened? Or at least soon after, including what they were going to give you as the anaesthetic?
