First time, they woke me up to tell me I had to go to emergency surgery because my LAD was 99.99% blocked and would not walk out of the hospital alive. 2nd time, I was given an all clear.(except for some minor blockages on small vessels. Hoping for the same this time, I really do not want to go through bypass surgery again. What's up with your doctors cathing you awake? Are they just sadistic?

I wasn't awake when they inserted the needle, etc, but woke up during the procedure.. I also woke up last time when I hemorrhaged.. That was no fun. I REALLY don't want to go through it again if I can help it.. It felt like they had parked a cement truck on my hip..
