Anaesthetising for a neurosurgical list today – two brain cases – as opposed to spines which is their other party trick.
I have a terrible headache myself, actually. Not through any sort of sympathetic process, but more from ongoing American election induced anxiety.
Mind you, it hasn’t been helped by loud drilling coming from the building site next door. We warned them that it wasn’t a good idea today – and we have been given the right of veto – but someone keeps trying to sneak in the odd heavy machinery action. I know what we’re doing isn’t rocket science – but still – not helpful. If it was my brain exposed to the elements then I’d like my surgeon to be able to hear himself think (let alone communicate said thoughts with the rest of the team).
