Awareness is a difficult term to define, and some research has focused on how exactly doctors and anesthesiologists can tell how deeply sedated you are. During some procedures, it’s possible — and even desired — for you to respond in certain ways, either physically or even verbally. But you still shouldn’t feel pain or remember what happened after you are brought out of sedation. Most of the time, general anesthesia is used for surgeries, but there have been reports from people who remember things said or done during the procedure. Some even say that they felt pain but were unable to move. This is anesthesia awareness.
