Redheads also have a chromosome that makes it more difficult for anesthesia to work properly, so they need more of it given to them. Same with Novacaine, I've read. Do you find that that is true for you?

That would explain my "resistance" to anesthesia...
Anesthesiologists have a dandy time with me...2 times in OR, i woke mid-surgery, they did take precaution the second time, they kept poking my lower back with numbing shots...

My latest dental appointment, the Dentist mercifully went beyond the 'limit' a little, tooth was deeper than she thought, and I still felt the "crunch" before she yanked...

When they performed a bone marrow biopsy, the shot didnt kick in until i was in the elevator back to my room, I kept hitting the numb spot, sayin shit that would make a salty pirate blush...

When they had no choice but to put a Femoral artery Catheter, he gave a local sedative, I felt every bit of it, u'd swear I was being tortured if u walked by my room...
