Here, we are joined by Guest Panelist Dr. Edna Ma, anesthesiologist. We discussed all the different anesthesia options for hernia repair, pros and cons of each, including general anesthesia, IV sedation, and regional anesthesia. We reviewed how to reduce postoperative urinary retention, nausea, vomiting, and wretching. We also reviewed how to adjust your medications and supplements to have the safest anesthesia. Each week we have even more interesting discussions. Please LIKE and SHARE.
