Hello, I'm trying to find out about the drugs I was given as a spinal epidural in my c section in 2001.
I had "a funny reaction" which from googling I understand is relatively normal. (Blood pressure dropped, I understand I was given something to sort it out, then developed really horrid itching until the anaesthetic finally wore off)
My dentist is going to take out one of my wisdom teeth. Local anaesthetic and possible sedative cos I'm a wuss. I asked about anaesthetics and mentioned my funny reaction. He said he wanted to know what i had, he suspected it wasn't a problem but asked me to check.
YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE how difficult it is getting this information from my medical records. Before I have one last desperate and probably futile attempt at trying to get this information via my GP (honestly don't make me go into the whole sorry saga, that's a separate thread in AIBU), could an anaesthetist tell me whether the answer is remarkably straight forward and generic?
Thank you.

Any anaesthetists around here?
