Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I have read your query and can understand your concern. I think that you have iron-deficiency anemia (a condition that occurs when the body does not have enough iron to produce enough red blood cells). I strongly suspect that you have it. Do a Holter monitoring test (a painless, non-invasive procedure that records the heart's electrical activity over a period of time) again while having palpitations.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. Please be assured that if a general anesthetic is needed, a nurse anesthetist can administer it if required. It is needed only if local anesthesia fails. Please make sure you do not listen to rumors and get confused.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and understand your concern. Traumatic brain injury, the name itself suggests trauma- head injury, fall from height, etc. I am sure traumatic brain injury patients will not have a GCS (The Glasgow Coma Scale, a clinical scale used to reliably measure a person's level of consciousness after a brain injury) of 15/15, wherein they have the insight, consciousness, and ability to ask very specific questions. I can reassure you that there is no chance of traumatic brain injury, and also, general anesthesia does not cause brain injury.
Hello, Welcome back to icliniq.com. Bifasicular block is commonly RBBB (right bundle branch block) with left or right axis deviation. I need to explain to you that patients with this block are safe to undergo anesthesia. I would have been happy if an ECG had been attached. If LBBB (left bundle branch block) is associated with the bifascicular block, only then does the risk increase, which is a complete heart block that needs a pacemaker.

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and understand your concern. Please convey your medical history to the anesthetist when you have a pre-anesthetic consultation.

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. I completely understand the anxiety of spinal anesthesia. Yes, you will be given Midazolam as a pre-medication and to reduce your anxiety.
