Heaven forbid, this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locked-in_syndrome

Quotea patient is aware but cannot move or communicate verbally due to complete paralysis of nearly all voluntary muscles in the body except for vertical eye movements and blinking. The individual is conscious and sufficiently intact cognitively to be able to communicate with eye movements.

Total locked-in syndrome, or completely locked-in state (CLIS), is a version of locked-in syndrome wherein the eyes are paralyzed as well.

  • Medication overdose
  • Damage to nerve cells
  • A stroke or brain hemorrhage
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Result from lesion of the brain-stem

in a similar vein: being consciously aware while under anesthesia. extremely rare but it has happened. i've never had to be put under for any kind of surgery and i'm dreading the day it inevitably happens because of this exact fear

i feel it's only fair you should know for your personal risk calculation purposes

idk, i always appreciate upfront realistic warnings of the myriad gnarly ways something might go awry lol

And I don't recall ever being warned that it's actually possible to wake up in the middle of it. I thought that was practically a myth. :|

I guess this isn't a real, living nightmare (yet) but I keep having a fairly recurring dream of trying to stop my car and it not stopping lol
