This is the 2nd time Ive posted this, but only got one answer the last, wld like more. Actually back in hospital now. In October (4th I think) my mates and I were mucking around in a tree and I slipped and fell three metres or so out onto the hard concrete ground. I was unconscious and my mate called an ambo. It came and I woke up in it, screaming in pain, thrashing around, was given something and then was in and out of it for the next few minutes. Woke up like a week later, was told I had been in an induced coma, had had brain swelling/minor bleeding and had my skull drilled to relive pressure, and had 13 pins and a rod in my foot as it was smashed. Had amnesia from the day of the accident and barely remember the trip. 2 nights ago I remembered a night there and 'felt' the doctor put a tube in throat & the doctor pinning my foot. Would they have used anaesthetic for my 2 operations, or being in a coma was enough?
