Sometimes you will be given general anaesthesia or IV sedation depending on requirement for surgery and what surgery it is.. If it’s Iv sedation… u will be sedated but not paralysed .. you will be breathing on your own… and if it’s general anaesthesia you will be fully paralysed and breathing will be taken over by ventilator support and in that case u will not be aware about the procedure done
