As mentioned above, is it dangerous to have two surgeries under general anesthetics within two months time? One was wisdom teeth removal and the other is going to be a lipo procedure. Does general anesthetics affect brain functions such as memory lost? What are the short and long term effects? I am worried that having general anesthetics twice within a short time would double the negative effects on my brain if there are some. Thanks.
