[@Catonzo]

My grandfather was not afraid of surgeries and whatever cutting, stitching and such was involved. Preferring to be awake for anything.. though naturally that would not have been wise. No.. my grandfather was petrified of being forced asleep.. because one time during a surgery his heart stopped before they could even start cutting. He was extremely afraid of the risk of death and the falling asleep part was to him reminiscent of the cold hand of death slowly gripping him.

[@Nightraven26]

Danny max well there can be a lot of bleeding during surgery and an anesthesiologist is tasked with giving IV fluids and blood to the patient and maintaining their blood pressure. Also, they give drugs which paralyse the muscles so that the patient stops breathing and a machine can ventilate them (or they can manually ventilate them), and those drugs which also relax muscles make it easier for surgeons to operate bc the patient’s muscles aren’t as tense. There can be no surgery without anaesthesiology.

Unexplained(Her mom died, so either the house was put on auction or it's free to move in) Why Carla didn't decide to leave with Turk? Unexplained Basically the only logic(although mean/awful) reason for Carla to kick out JD is because she is too lazy to invest time into looking for a better place for her and Turk(but considering that they're two of them, it would have been easier to look for a place...while JD is alone and doesn't get any help) Also...to add insult(or salt, you decide the "spice" XD) to the injury: Once JD started to live in a tent, Turk, JD and Elliot got whiny over JD being needy...

Actually hypnosis works by tricking you brain into inducing false pain when you do something i had a friend who wanted to quit smoking so he did hypnosis and the hypnotist asked “whats the most unpleasent thing you can think of” he said “dry heaving” so he got him to dry heave every time he craved a cigarette after a while he kicked the addiction however it was not pleasent being around him when he was in the transitioning phase

[@StyxTBuferd]

Hypnosis can actually do a lot of very helpful things. The big crux with hypnosis is that it requires compliance- it's a method of tricking your brain into doing things it already wants to do on some level. That obviously only goes so far as a replacement for anesthesia (and I doubt you could do even half a surgery with it), but it has been used to help people kick addictions. Carla's speaking the truth in this episode, even if I think her idea was kind of crazy. But, at the end of the day, it's what the patient wanted. Kelso was right to see that as an opportunity.

I got my Arm cut open without any narcotics or painkillers for a Quick Medical thing (i rammed several big pieces of wood into my arm in a workplace accident and tweezers didnt work.. so the scalpel had to do the trick and it only took 2 minutes) and the pain was incredible. I cant imagine how insane the pain would be during an appendix surgery.. holy moly.

I stabbed a knife right into my chest near my heart, got really close.That was my third suicide attempt. Passed out due to blood lost.

The only reason I'd choose to go for hypnosis would be becase I'm very very drunk during the OP.

It's weird to see Dr kelso defending doctor (he allways cared but knew he needed to be the bad guy) against Dr cox but allways likes the relationship between kelso and turkatlion

I never go deep enough into trance for that.

One time they had to do a local surgery with local anesthesia on my arm. They told me it would take an hour and I could be knocked out instead. I was like: “Knock me the hell out, I ain't going to try to hold still and feel the scapel for an hour.”

Carla was insufferable this episode

[@kikivivi8646]

I hated being awake for my wisdomteeth removal (in germany it's standard practise to just do a local anesthesia). Who wants to be awake for this kind of stuff? This is fyi also the reason why an operation on my brain would be my worst nightmare.

Goddamn Carla, and instead of apologizing she hugs him

Dr. Cox filling Turk's face with fear at 2:46 FTW!

[@TheKpa11]

And then Turk got sued the very next day

[@player133A]

Remember she asked for it. Its not like you cannot say that Turk didn't object to it although a bit unprofessional with the bit about not wanting to sleep with wife and wanting to sleep with a celebrity. But, now the world has reconfirmed that there is a reason why hypnosis is taught in med school thanks to the surgery.
