[quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone from anesthesia will do "twilight" sleep on a pregnant woman in her second trimester. At this point, your digestion has slowed down quite a bit, so you are considered a "full stomach" even if you have fasted for the required 8 hours before surgery. A knee scope can be done under local. It'll just hurt like hxxx while he numbs up the knee with local anesthetic. The other option is spinal anesthesia. Totally safe for the baby, but would just take a while for the numbness to wear off.[/quote]
