Anesthesia Amnesia
Broke my back during an accident a few years ago. Made a full recovery, but the night after they put chapstick-sized screws in my back to hold it all together remains the most painful and miserable experience of my entire life.
Woke up from surgery thinking, “This isn’t too bad”, and then entered the depths of the underworld a few hours later when the anesthesia faded. Fun fact: There’s a limit to how many painkillers they can give you right after you’ve been under complete anesthesia. They increased the dosage the next day, and I was alright, but that first night was something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.
