About going under anesthesia given by a colleague, I’ve recently been sedated for an endoscopy and a colonoscopy. I asked her to give me the same I usually give to my patients for the same procedures, if she didn’t mind of course. It was great because I confirmed that I’ve been giving them good care, since I felt great afterwards.
I remember taking an "anesthesia for engineers" course at a university in Florida at the beginning of my medical device design career in the late 90s. The highlight was observing an open heart surgery from a few feet away, but the scariest part was the anesthesiologist explaining that he was 100% responsible for keeping the patient alive during surgery. I hadn't realized that.
Nellcor sent me to the course. This was back when they were the gold standard in pulse oximetry (roughly 2000 if memory serves). There were a lot of machines in the open heart operating room that were making all sorts of beeps and boops. Nobody paid any attention to them. But when the pitch of the pulse ox beep went down, every doc and nurse in the room turned to look at the Nellcor machine. That made me realize I was working on something that had real value.
That sounds like a very profound and powerful experience! It's great that you were able to find meaningful purpose in your position making important equipment, for a critical job, in an extremely precise and delicate line of work. Your machines meant life or death. I wish automotive engineers had to visit repair shops and were forced to watch us bust our knuckles and get underpaid having to repair things tangled up in their horrible designs. 😑
Nellcor? It is now a subsidiary of Medtronic. Nellcor SpO2 technology is inside almost every patient monitor.
I'm surprised the anesthesiologist didn't mention the perfusionist, who assumes function of the heart and lungs and is arguably 100% responsible for keeping the patient alive during cardiopulmonary bypass
"Yes, I self diagnosed"- 😂😂😂spoken like a true doctor
I came here to say exactly this 😂 At least he freely admits it; with a bit of a grin and grimace!! 🤣
An anesthesia legend being interviewed by an anesthesia legend to be.
Poštovani dr. Hađiću, brzog vam oporavka! Odlična diskusija o svim vidicima anestezije. Max, thank you!
Regional nerve blocks for pain are simply magical. When I broke my leg in 3 places, I had just eaten dinner and needed the surgery delayed till the morning. I was managed with hydromorphone Q2. I fractured my distal tibia at the ankle, proximal tibia at the knee and through the articular cartilage, and the distal femur was severely comminuted including into the articular cartilage as well. In the morning, the ortho surgeon and the anesthesiologist met me in pre-op. Right away the anesthesiologist asked to get access to my inguinal and hip regions. He told me he was going to inject some anesthetic to help control the pain even more than the hydromorphone. As I continued talking to ortho explaining the motorcycle crash and relevant Hx, the regional block was injected. I stopped talking mid-sentence and looked at the anesthesiologist and said "Wow! That's amazing! What did you do? Thank you so much that is way better. Oh my god..." Both he and ortho laughed. It was such a merciful thing to do. That leg hurt so much that they could've done the block with a blunt 14 gauge needle and I would've begged for it anyway.
I appreciate how he didn't want special treatment. Must have made everyone feel at ease.😊
I love how down to earth he is!
Absolutely.
He's professionally at the top of his career, yet he treats his colleagues also as consummate professionals who are more than proficient in their own right.
Everyone please hit that like button for Max. He deserves it for all the great content he continues to bring us.
just had an awesome experience with my anesthesiologist. I got a nerve block and general anesthesia and woke up perfectly fresh.
Very impressed that a leader if the field who then becomes on the receiving end doesn't demand special treatment and looks to get what the other Dr is used to doing. He realizes he will get the best possible care because he will be getting what the Dr is used to doing----so getting the best they have to give.
Anesthesiologists have always been the most down to earth, kind doctors to their patients. Haven't met a bad one yet.
100% agree. I’ve never had a bad anesthesiologist.
Same! I've had several surgeries and a lot of doctors are so arrogant or just straight up disrespectful to their patients, but anaesthetists (which seems to be what we call them here? Rather than anaesthesiologists, but idk, maybe it's just the people I've encountered use that word more) have always been lovely and sympathetic towards me.
I beg to differ. I woke up during knee surgery. When surgery ended I was petrified, I still am a little nutty when I hear a hammer strike a cold chisel. He discounted the fact I work up until I told him almost verbatim what he and the surgeon were discussing. He turned pale. Please believe your patients
I work with dental anesthesiologists and they're all so kind, hardworking, and down to earth. They treat everybody with respect.
@@gina-es5ul dental anesthesiologists are the NICEST people. I will get any type of surgery no problem but when it comes to my mouth 😳 the Anesthesia team at my dentist were amazing. Gave me a cocktail then when I was sitting there played the music I like then I was just put off to sleep, easiest dental surgery ever.
Dr. F is so good, makes me laugh and feel comfortable pre surgery.
I Love Dr Hadzic’s answers. Whatever you do for everyone else do for me and give me whoever’s working that day. Gotta respect that from some1 who could literally have whatever he wanted from whoever he wanted it from
I had a very good Anesthesiologist for my last operation in 2017. He sat with me in pre-op and went over my medical history, listended to my concerns (I have Sickle Cell trait and was anxious that care would be taken not to let my oxygen levels drop too low) and was very reassuring, I remember walking into the operating room and sitting on the table as instructed, but nothing after that! As I already had lines inserted, it was most likely that a sedative was being adminstered at that point. My next memory was the Recovery Room nurse calling my name and telling me to keep the oxygen mask on. For me, it was a short nap.
Doc, your videos are fantastic. Thank you for taking the time to put these together.
You seem like a very kind person. I love your channel. ❤️
I have summer training so every day I watch your videos they help me alot 👍🏻
Grateful, most sincerely, for your amazing tutorials🏆
Awesome video Max!!!!
Great video! I can imagine it’s hard becoming the patient when you’re used to being the one treating them but it’s definitely a reminder of what it’s like on the other side as the patient so it’s a refreshing perspective.
I know a few doctors and they simultaneously made the best and worst patients at times because of it depending on the situation, especially with their children, lol, because that’s who they trained to work with specifically.
It’s really interesting to see things like that as an outsider/bystander and try to understand the why behind their actions, so fascinating!
Great vid. My first thought was OMG I hope Max is ok 👍🏻. Whew scary! Glad all is well 😃
Excellent video, thanks
Interesting, thank you Doctor! Btw I am a long time subscriber and huge enthusiastic about your CZcams sessions.. from Belgium. I hope you enjoyed your time in my country.
Oh gosh I missed watching you!! Been years and it’s always entertaining
I had rotator cuff tear surgery in 2016. They gave me a general anesthesia and they gave me a nerve block preoperative. This allowed me to be pain free until the next morning. I was thankful for this pain free time after tge surgery. That was a hard recovery but my hip replacement surgery was more painful. I was released from the hospital 23 hours after surgery. I live alone so I actually fell out of bed the next day. It took me longer to recover than for my 2 knee replacements.
Your initial question was "How would you treat a fellow Anathisolgist" well i feel you should treat them like every one else. As states Ipocriti oath. It's no doubt an honor to have such a wonderful opportunity to actually know in person such a amazingly talented colleague, and no doubt that of all people he understands your position. Noble art of Anathisolgy is fascinating and takes a truly special kind of person. Keep up the great work. 👍
Dr. Max, I really enjoy your videos, especially more so now because I am being scheduled for shoulder surgery. Could you please make a video in which you talk about sleep apnea complications when getting general anesthesia, including complications related to the beach chair position? I would absolutely appreciate it. Thank you so much for your wonderfully informative videos.
Excellent content!
Had a complete left shoulder replacement almost six years ago. Had a left side nerve block for past-op analgesic…it was a god send. They used the ultrasound to place the block. Fascinating process. That plus the good drugs and lots of ice got me through the first 24 hours. I was out completely for the surgery btw.
I love the feeling of going under! I had hand surgery 5 1/2 months ago and wanted a general….that’s what I got instead of conscious sedation. I’m about to have a broken tooth removed under conscious sedation and I’m waiting for major stomach surgery which will be a general anesthetic. I just like the peaceful feeling of drifting off and being taken care of!
It's interesting that Dr Hadzic was happy with taking a random anesthesiologist. I've had doctors tell me to ask for a specific surgeon or one of a couple when they referred me to a place with like 8 surgeons. "Try to get Doctor Smith or Doctor Jones--I think they're the cream of the crop over there."
The best way to find out who the best Dr is for your problem especially surgery is to ask a medical rep/medical sales person who goes into procedures in the operating room with their product. They see all types of drs and how they act in the operating room. Are they cowboys? Do they run rickshaw or treat the or staff w respect, do they perform in a way that is the most advantageous for the patient and great patient outcomes? Just keep them in mind. It has worked for me as my husband used to be in medical sales and would never go into a personal surgery without asking colleagues who the best is in their field.
I had the same surgery plus labrum repair my surgeon was not comfortable doing surgery except under general and I had a nerve block post op it worked wonderfully I never questioned my Dr at all
As someone that has doctor anxiety and am terrified of the thought of surgery, thank you! The local anesthetic wore off during a dental procedure and I have never been the same sense in terms trusting oral surgeons in particular, but also doctors generally, it was horrible. But you two gentlemen seem, intelligent, caring and down to earth.
This is the only Edson who can self diagnose himself and it actually helping
You should really do a video explaining the entire process of having anesthesia for the purpose of someone going for surgery.
In my experience, at least understanding part of the process and just being prepared for what is going to happen helps a lot in relieving anxiety.
You could go through every step of the experience, from start to finish including showing what the operating room looks like, describing what it feels like to get the anesthetic and such
I think that would be a huge help to a lot of people demystifying. All of the experience is the key. I think.
"If is good for patient is good for me"
Would love to see a video or a portion of video about how mid-levels, such as a CRNA, fits into the field.
I 99% agree with that "you can tell him your preferences, but never force a medical professional".
But I also once had to physically prevent a PA from doing my harm. Surgeon came in a few hours later and said "I read the PA's report--and I told him in this case, the patient was right and the orders I had left where incomplete and would have been harmful. You did the right thing refusing." The surgeon wrote the order "remove chest tube in the morning" when he should have written it "remove chest tube in the morning if the lungs have not unsealed overnight". PA would not take no for an answer and was physically trying to yank the tube while I was physically trying to block him--kinda insane. I won the physical battle. Never thought I'd have to physically overcome a "medical professional" while laying in a hospital bed. Surgeon said if I'd let him yank the tube, at the rate my lungs were leaking I would have been struggling to breathe within an hour.
Negligence or malpractice case right there
I had the same injuries due to a gym injury in 2017. Shoulder fixed. 👍
Thanks a lot for this powerful clip/talk. Personally, I like the Dr. who did not be treated as " VIP". ❤
I never had much of a discussion with the anesthesiologist. I told him what he needed and I got a TAP block vs spinal because of neuropathy
I'd only ever read up on symptoms and depending if relevant, bring it up to my doctor for discussion. Doesn't hurt to try and be informed, but they're the experts.
Hello gentlemen. I trust the training and knowledge of my medical professionals. They obviously know more than I do.
Every time I have had anesthesia, I warn them I get very nauseous with anesthesia. Then he or she creates a plan and asks me what I think. As a non-medical person, I always say that I trust their expertise and knowledge. :)
I believe anesthesiologist are one of the more important members of my surgical care team. They ensure that I have the best possible pain control and wake me up when the procedure is complete! :)
That sling! I just had one of those! (My kitty who I spent a lot of time teaching to trust people now likes to plop down in unexpected places suddenly appeared under my foot. I reacted badly and wound up on my shoulder with a bad break.) Pretty much everything in this video lines up with what I had when I got a plate put in my shoulder. Nerve block for my shoulder left some pain longer than I expected (call it a poking feeling for a week) and getting off pain meds for the screws etc. in my clavicle is taking a bit longer than expected but this video is pretty accurate.
I don't know you, but I'll beg you to stop taking the opioids as SOON as you can handle the pain with max dose 800mg ibuprofen and 1,000mg Tylenol round the clock. It takes 2-3 days of opioid use to form a dependency. You will soon find yourself reaching for them despite not actually being in horrible pain. I was a "good" person who nobody would ever expect to struggle with opioid dependency at any point in life. A broken leg changed that. The D.A.R.E. classes and ample drug education can do nothing to stop the neurochemical reactions that occur in a human brain when using opioids. :'( If you find yourself wanting them despite tolerable pain levels, or if you find yourself taking the maximum dose despite only moderate pain, give them to a family member to hide and start a 2 or 3 day crash taper. Get some Imodium and doxylamine succinate, and tough out the few days of cessation-related discomfort. I beg you. :(
@@mannys9130 I'm already off Norco and down to Tramadol. In a few days I expect it to be a combination of tylenol and ibuprofen. Trust me, my plan is to get off this stuff.
Awesome and amazing video,,it’s funny how Anesthesiologist needs anesthesia, lol 😂! I really enjoy donating to the anesthesiologist Foundation, since it was hard for me to go to college because of my cerebral palsy, I really wanted to be a anesthesiologist physician! You rock man! Have you ever had surgeries? I have had 14 surgeries because of my cerebral palsy! I love how anesthesiologist bond with the patients, and love helping people! That’s one reason I wanted to be a anesthesiologist, I love the hilarious patients! I always talk and make jokes with my anesthesiologist that helps me to relax before I fall asleep! It takes a special person and skill to be a anesthesiologist or CRNA and you’re one of them!
i also had a 3 day nerve block pump after my surgery and i removed the thing that was near my nerve myself after 3 days lol.
I had a shoulder done several years ago, they asked about the nerve block. I asked if I would be out completely, they said “if you want to be”. I told them it’s your show I’ll be happy to sleep through it.
This is the coolest! I’d be so starstruck. 😊
I love anesthesia
I had nerve block on my shattered ball joint in my shoulder. I was yelling at the Anesthesiologist that it is worse than the broken arm and shattered shoulder. Then I was out under General.I might have said a few choice words at the time. I will say the Ortho that fixed my arm/shoulder is the best ortho I have ever had. He is ex military Ortho. When he saw my shoulder/upper arm he said to me "I have seen shit in the field yet never anyone that has F'ed up arm/shoulder like you have." Needless to say I was not a fan of that Anesthesiologists. He was different than the one 3 days earlier than put me under for screws in my broken femur off the ball joint. That was actually talked to me before hand. The later nope.
Isn't this guy the one who does videos about starting difficult IVs? He's fantastic!
One of my anesthesia attendings had inguinal hernia surgery in the hospital he works at. He used one of the sterile markers to write instructions and jokes on himself beforehand. For example, his stomach said INSERT FOLEY HERE with an arrow..
The nerve block seriously creeped me out to the point where my blood pressure went up so high they couldn't do the surgery, and I ended up in the ER for five hours and I had to have cardiac clearance before they did my rotator cuff surgery. I felt really stupid when I realized that they were going to give me drugs before they stuck the needle in my neck. Once that took effect, I didn't care what they did :)
And even better, that nerve block lasted almost two days, and when it wore off, the pain was actually only slightly worse than it was before the surgery, but at least I knew it was going to get better, so I rode it out. I think I only took the Norco they prescribed twice. It didn't really work, it made me sick, it made me itch and it backed me up. That's when I tried the edibles. That definitely worked better. They hit me so hard that I was able to sleep in my own bed and never moved for eight hours.
I liked the ending how important it is to smash the like button
Max,
No scrubs hunh?! Incognito in Belgium 😂
Belgium!? heh! what are the odds? I live there! certainly has a fair share of very good (and not so good) hospitals!
My anesthesiologist put me to sleep BEFORE he did the nerve block. That thing was horrible. It wore off within hours and if I could have chewed my own arm off, I would have. I am thankful for him. I just wish it would not have worn off so quickly. AND I wish my pain management Doctor would give me a chill pill or twilight sleep before doing the blocks/injections in my SI Joints and spine.
Good vid. I like how he didn't want to be treated any differently than any other patient. I had 2 surgical breast biopsies without any anesthesia - only local numbing. Did that because I didn't want someone to have to have someone drive me home. Is that unusual?
Not in my opinion, no. I am extraordinarily nauseous follow GA. Every time I've gone under, I wake up ready to puke my guts up for 4 to 5 hours. Ondansetron and prochlorperazine don't help much. My spinal nerves also react poorly to GA and I suffer difficulty peeing and serious constipation following even a short procedure. From now on, if I need a surgery that can be done with a regional block or local, I'm electing to use those methods rather than GA.
How would the lay person know what anesthetic the clinic specializes in? What I want is no sedation if possible and regional nerve blocks for total knee replacement. How do you ask for that as nicely as possible?
Lol, when I had my bypass surgery the anesthesiologist stuck his head in my room and asked me to bend my head back. That was it. No chat, no nothing. In the OR the anesthetist said “you are going to sleep now” and that was it. I had an awesome cardiac surgeon and he made up for everybody else.
Me who just got a shoulder labrum tear fixed: that nerve block stuff is good stuff
Wow.
My biggest fear is that they don't give me enough drugs (because they didn't listen to me) and I wake up paralyzed, but in extreme pain, and unable to speak or move.
Are surgeons and other OR personnel affected by volatile anesthetics that the patient is not absorbing? Are ET tube exhalation products somehow ducted elsewhere?
This is what is done in France at IMM in France.
interesting perspective about being a "normal" patient
As a first time general anesthesia patient getting a hip replacement I went through the "internet research" phase. Every phase of surgery was scary but the scariest was knowing I would surrender all control with the induction of anesthesia. No questions, no discussions during the procedure was scary. I had a surgeon who was recommended by my long term personal physician at a hospital at which he had privileges (and was affiliated with Mass General). Reasonably what was I fearing? (Loss of control) I also have worked as an engineer where "recipe" matters. There are protocols and procedures that simply exist because they work reliably. Nobody really can explain why except that "the other way" may not work. I am sure this is so in medicine. As a patient, it's foolish to pick and choose components of treatment. I think patients who do "research" need to confront their own fears and paramount of which is losing control - which begins with Anesthesia.
I think its a bit of a simplification. Educating yourself on what is going on with your body is important to a lot of people to ease stress and anxiety of what is going on. I live with a chronic illness and I’ve consistently done a ton of research into my conditions and the updated treatments - not so I can tell a doctor what to do, but to go in being able to have an educated conversation - Ive pointed my doctors to research they haven’t seen yet that has helped not only me but other patients as well. I think the key thing here is EDUCATING yourself, not demanding things of your doctor. The idea that you should simply feel comfortable with whatever a doctor says because its what they say isn’t right either - Doctors are human and therefore just as fallible as anyone else. If you go in as an educated, but not demanding, patient, you can truly be a partner in your own care.
Ive declined things from my doctor because Ive done my research and make determinations for my own body and well being based on what Ive learned from reputable sources. For example the risk reward of potential side effects have made me say no to treatments because of my own medical history and risks my doctors aren’t fully aware of I’ve spoken to the doctor and been able to explain why Ive said no to something and they’ve understood and given me options
Educating yourself as a patient and being a self advocate nothing to be looked down upon.
Being an ass to your doctor is.
There’s a big difference between those two
As it turns out, these are frequently not true for women (cause the medical field and especially field of medications knows too little about us) and trust me, when you're NOT a standard case person, you very unfortunately are likely to end up educating your medical professional on how to treat you safely. Because the medical fiels is just massive and you kind of cannot expect some super specialised person to know about e.g. how sth. like the still rather not well researched "AD(H)D in women" can impact EVERYTHING between which treatment options are even thinkable (e.g. cause you're liely to struggle taking medications) to anesthesia (often lots of trauma which affects the nervous system and pain perception, being prone to reflux and vomiting due to frequently anxiety hampered stomach). The list is huge.
Professionals are excellent for "standard" cases and these procedures are very safe. But some of us are literally more likely to suffer significant problems if we don't get smart and informed enough in order to know which information to give the professional so they could make good decisions.
Know what it's like when everyone wants to save your precious uterus at all costs and prevent scarring so you can stay pretty, but all you want, is a) health, end of pain b) no blasted uterus, cause you need permanent solutions that end the need of regular meds, if possible. Also, no kids thanks. c) "I don't care what my battle scar lookss like, give me the most functional procedure and just make sure it doesn't rip open with my really bad tissue!" 😅
They are people. They have limits and biases. Sometimes it's indeed necessary to hand over control n trust them. But sometimes, doing so is a terrible idea, cause no matter how much you wished you were, you're not a "standards case". 🥲
Recent first surgury ever and what this guy was talking about around the 9 min mark was totally lacking. Major medical center, and im not the only one experiencing this. Health care is falling apart that within itself; is a diaease in our nation that needs treatment and fast.
I related to the last part of this video. I'm TERRIFIED of needles!
I had nerve block for rotator cuff and they put it in a vein and zapped me out for awhile
Which Fellowship are you planning to join?
Key thing to note here, is that Anesthesiologists can go to Skiing Trips!
I recently donated a kidney and the anesthesiologist came in to speak with me before surgery. He asked what I had for breakfast I said I haven’t eaten since 7pm last night. He was trying to catch me flubbing up because I had specific guidelines of no food after 7. I thought it was quite clever rather than when was the last time you ate?
Asking a patient what they had for breakfast is a classic anesthesia line 😅
😹💕 *Anesthesiologist taking Anesthesia* is like a *Bartender makin a special Cocktail and drinking himself*
I wanted to ask you something. I am fully aware of the fact that you all provide only the necessary amount of anesthetic. But in my case, I have had 18 sessions of ECT in an attempt to cure the depression I have, and I instead liked the anesthesia because I felt like it was liberating me and helping me die for those 10mins or so.. I had a lot of suicidal ideation so I requested them to not give more ECTs but they didn't listen to me, I told them every anesthesia feels like dying and encourages me to try suicide more. But they didn't listen and forced me to sign on the voluntary consent papers and gave me more sessions. Is it possible to get addicted to anesthesia after getting it so many times, especially when you really want to die?
People can become "addicted" to anything in life. Gambling, sex, cleaning, eating, making money, learning, working out, body building, shopping, etc., are all common psychological addictions. Have you tried ketamine therapy for treatment resistant major depression?
@@mannys9130 I'm honestly not interested in any more therapies. Can't trust any doctor after whatever has happened.
Also i left my knee alone for like 9 years after my first knee surgery and had issues for that 9 years and finally hit F- it and had pain. then got it fixed. i was so terrified of the nerve block lmaooooo.
oh how the tables have turned
I'll just opt for Moe Larry, and Curley as the anesthetists. They are cool. They offer you ether - ether the bottle or the hammer.
😂😂😂

I would love if dr glucomflecken made a skit where the anesthesiologist goes for surgery and then thirty minutes into the surgery takes a break XD
Nerve blocks - regional anesthesia
I dont understand the special treatment for doctors like why are they asking him these questions? Are they asking him to choose the doctor bc some are better than the others?
In reality: yes! AND there's that bit where people from the field tend to have a particular set of fears that is typical to the insider look. You may have 10 capabl collegus, but with 3 of them you have difficult work releationships and thus, you know that they are most likely to get impacted in their performace, cause YOU are not a stranger patient. So YOUR reputation can actually get in the way of your treatment, by scaring the ppl like no regular patient would scare them. It's a question of "psychological impact of power dynamics".
They are asking about options, cause each professional can develop preferences according to their personal priorities. And they'll feel better and be less likely to cause trouble afterwards, if said preferences are attended to. Regular patients cannot usually do that. After all, they have not studied the field! X'D
It's very real, that the leading figures of a field usually have to put up with their own service being provided to them by people with less expertise, cause .... um .... they're the leading figure. It's a common dillemma, actually. And the team is trying to accomodate for that. So you can say, it's a psychological matter.
What they are actually asking: Who's most likely to be forgiven, if anything goes wrong, cause you'll accept it as "sth. that happens", rather than "sth. this collegue messed up cause they didn't do what I would have done in their stead!". Because when things go wrong, your emotions barge through your psychological setup with very minimal suppression X'D and it'll absolutely abuse these cracks to wreck you. Hence, part of patient health, is to ensure sufficient trust. And he turned out to be very trusting of the team. And some other people won't get there so easily X'D (I hear Neurologists tend to struggle with character and giving up control :P)
I thought you graduated from residency and are now an attending? Did I miss something?
(I recorded this before I graduated, you didn’t miss anything!)
@@MaxFeinsteinMD Thanks for responding and congratulations on graduating residency.
Congrats Dr. 🎉

When Dr Hadzic started talking about patients reading online and the demanding. There is such a problem today (mostly with mothers who say they know their kids the best) where people just do not value education whatsoever. They tell kids to not be doctors, just do a trade you'll be fine. Yet these people demand from doctors. Not all doctors are competent. Does not mean all of them are bad. You go find another doctor. People will do this to dentists as well. There is a who ethics and moral issue with people who go demanding. Medical science is not perfect, however if you knew better than the doctor. Why are you being demanding. You didn't attend school for 10+ years and have no medical degree. Then you have people who are like "people in their 20s are getting X thing" and treat it as though doctors have no skill or knowledge at all. Society is very demanding of what they dont know. I am afraid of needles myself, I cringe when there is a needing into the inner elbow. Even dental needles I dont like. However, I do feel like in my experience. When a doctor has explained to me the bigger picture and often they have been quite good at teaching me techniques they use that can just help distract me from the needle or just trick my brain. Its not easy but you deal with it. If it has to be done, then it has to be done. I appreciate needles, I just dont like them.
I fear that a lot of hte demanding actually is a result of people at large having ha way too many negative experiences in their medical systems.
It's a reality that medical staffs are ofte overworked AND are not given talk time by insurances and in some countries, things are insanely expensive, which curbs expectations and the pressure on people to be as effective in "getting treatment" as possible. Work environments demanding ppl to not skip work days for appointments (oh....the idiocy...) make it even worse. And people are constantly bombarded with information on how they got misdiagnosed.
Seriously, especially as a woman AND neurodivergent at that, I can not AFFORD to not be underinformed. Your 10+ years of school don't help me, cause the effects of misogyny and ableism on medicine are incredibly real. And how often I hear doctors speak about how THEY "never learned any of this during medical school...." is an uncomfortable truth.
I went in to "demand" a hysterectomy with a surgeon, end of last year. Said surgeon turned that down for reasons he named that were ... rather questionable. I almost died that day, that's how devastating it was to not be heared after FINALLY bringing up the strength to attend to my issue. And it's only thanks to our medical system being "free" (other htan the basic fee) for a majority of procedures and doctors, that I found the strength to give it another "last try" months later. Explicitly asking via email before if they'd give my case a chance or just turn me down for same superficial reasons.
I was very lucky and got told they'll not turn me down in that way. And that surgeon is the nicest doctor I've ever met. If not for him, my life would still be a miserable mess. He hurt my urether, I needed re-implantation. I didn't care. I reassured him to never have regrets, because even after half a year of all sorts of complications, I'm still happier than before by a breath-taking huge load!
There are people who are demanding in very unreasonable ways. Many. Absolutely agree with you. BUT, I ask you to never lose sight, that in a majority of cases, people have very solid reasons, why they're demanding. They have story and backgrounds and information that THEY are experts in. They're trying to survive, often.
When you see these people, I hope you remember, that they usually need more kindness than anyone, more questions as to how they reached their conclusions and a more humne approach than "I'm doing this for x years, I know what is best for you".
I know there's no practical way of doing this, but I *wish* healthcare professionals would have personal experience with the treatments they give.
Actually know what psychiatric meds *feel like*, and why taking Quetapine for the first time when you still have stuff to do is a very bad idea. And not just cuz you're "drowsy".
Get fluids drained from an infected lung without anesthesia and tell me if it feels like an IV.
Apparently mhealth professionals are bad patients, but why? Chefs are great eaters, game developers are avid gamers. But being a patient is vulnerable AF. The only times I was actually happy as a patient, was when I had a doctor who had personal experience with chronic illness.
Doh so he broke all the rules by self diagnosing instead of going to a collogue for a diagnosis...

Doctors having standards, now there’s a novel thought…

Can we delete the F and make him Einstein?
This guy is so biased, everything he says is trying to convince you to make it easier for the doctors at all costs
When I was 12 I broke my leg. Prior to surgery had a huge shot in my thigh which hurt. I went to OR awake . They put something in my IV .When I awoke and had pain .the surgeon ordered .s.ho.ts, which was for IM l in my bottom. Painful and I cried
