Can hypertension along with anesthesia become a problem?
Be sure that your hypertension is well controlled. Be sure that your primary physician knows that you are going to have surgery and if you haven’t been seen by him or her in 6 mos to a year, you should be seen before surgery. Someone from the hospital or surgery center should call you. Tell him or her all the medications you take and follow instructions as to what you should or should not take the morning of surgery.

Can anesthesia cause drowsiness long after surgery?
Most anesthetics are cleared from the body within 24 hours, so I would say no. READ MORE
