    How much the process has changed in the last 15 years it may as well have been 1911.

    Have you ever been put under a general anesthesia as part of an outpatient procedure?

    You are always dehydrated when that starts.

      I don’t think I’ve ever been fully anesthetic but I accompanied my relative for a stomach-scope a few years ago. It only involved emptying the stomach the day before and drinking a lot of water. I know the colon is a different organ but just wondering what is wrong with IV.
