I don't know the answer to this, but you might want to tell them that

you are hypersensitive to some things, so if there is an alternate

formulation or lesser amount they can give you, that might be a good

thing. I know that I've had problems at the dentists office with

Novocaine, although my current dentist has been happy to cut the

dose and use less potentially harmful additives.

Quite a number of people with MCS or ES have reported bad side effects from

general anaesthetic - we certainly think it affected Sue (her problems

initially began after antibiotics and a general anaesthetic for a dental

infection, which then led to candida and gut problems). But I don't know of

a way of telling whether it will affect a particular person - only that it

is definitely an increased risk for MCS/ES people because the immune system

is extra sensitive, and less able to deal with " unusual " chemicals.

Hi everyone

I will shortly need to have some surgery and was wondering are there

any specific issues that ES people need to watch out for in relation to

undergoing a general anaesthetic - any information anyone has on this

would be greatly appreciated.

I seizured during my hysterectomy, and I'm sure it was caused by some

exposure - the lighting? monitors? I'm not sure.

I'm not sure what to tell you.
