Pat I do vagally (no pun intended) remember reading something concerning NCS and anesthesia. I wish I could remember better what I read, but maybe if you search the internet you'll find something. Do be sure that not only the doctor, but the anesthesiologist knows about this. It will probably require her being monitored for a while longer after the surgery. I'll look through my bookmarks and see if I kept the site on my computer. You also might contacts NDRF (national dysautonomia research foundation). There number (in MN) is 651-267-0525. You could probably contact them by email from their website. Maggie

This web site is not a substitute for a thorough medical evaluation and diagnosis of your vaso-vagal type symptoms.  Medical treatment and diagnosis is the only acceptable initial response to these serious symptoms since they might present from any number of life threatening and treatable illnesses. It is for you and your physician to rule out more serious illnesses; Please don't use this online forum as an alternative to getting responsible medical attention and being under the care of a physician for the duration of any unknown, suspected or dangerous vaso-vagal syndrome symptoms.
