Regular Member Gustavo Posted February 5 Regular Member Share Posted February 5 As I know adrenaline can produce palpitations / taquicardia, I’m always putting isurgery off HLC offers me IV sedation which can be good for my anxiety ,my question is , once they apply local anesthesia [ lidocaine plus epinephrine ( adrenaline) the heart may rise speed for how long? The whole time while anestheisia is working or less? I’m asking this since the IV sedation goes for 15bto 30 minutes I think i hope I ll be dumb enough not to be thinking about how fast my heart beats , I’m stupid ,I know because I understand it’s a benign fight and flight or whatever it s called taquicardia,but still .i don’t like it at all anybody please shedding light on all this . I do want this surgery !1 Thanks !1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Rose17 Posted February 5 Regular Member Share Posted February 5 I think Dr. Leal in Brazil puts you fully to sleep for the entire surgery. He’s regarded the best surgeon in South America/Brazil up there with Pittella. But I am not sure how common this is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
