In 25 years, no patient has ever reported to have had a dream under a full general anesthetic, but many reports what a great “sleep” that was. I do admit it is fun to ask the patient “where do you want to go for the next few hours”, sometimes due to the premedication “cocktail” provided, the answers can be quite interesting.
Anyways, I have sent him a message through Quora and hopefully he clarifies this for us.
