Guest guest Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 I also have trouble coming out of sedation and takes days for me to come completely out of the effects from it. I think it's because our bodies can't properly metabolize medications. It's best to start out with small doses of anesthetics and then increase the dose as needed.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 My daughter always takes a long time coming out of anesthesia. It was explained to me as the mito kids system is slowed anyways because of the disease, it takes longer for the meds to wear off. If you are concerned I would call the doctor. There are medications to reverse sedation (although usually given right after the procedure). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Kerry I don't know about sedation but when I saw your email and that your kids have Mito and FOD I thought maybe we could email privately. My son was diagnosed with SCAD and just recently after seeing Dr. Vockley he thinks he has Mito and SCAD. I have so many questions. If you have the time I would love to chat. you could email me at tengelson@.... Thanks Tina - New York Mom to AJ - Mito/SCAD Sedation question Hello: Has anyone ever had problems with their child coming off of sedation? Brenna (3 yrs) received 130 mg orally of NEMBUTAL on Tuesday for her MRI & MRS. That was at 8:30 AM. We went home just after 10 am and when she woke up at 1:30 PM she could lift her head, but then it would just fall back down. She then started to take juice and by 3 pm was vomiting. By 5 PM her nurse was here checking her and she still could not stand up & continued to vomit. She was still sleepy yesterday, but much better than the day before. Her MD's think she just had a reaction to it, but I am interested if other mito kids have had troubles with this med or others. Thanks~ Kerry ~ Plymouth, MA Hailey 4 yrs Mito & FOD Brenna 3 yrs Mito & FODPlease contact mito-owner with any problems or questions.
