No anesthesia person anywhere in the world would do a spinal anesthetic for a nose job, simply doesn’t work that way. The highest anesthetic level even possible would be mid chest level with a spinal. Some serious lack of info going on here. Was it local anesthetic systemic toxicity because of absorption through the nasal passages( surgeon administered)which caused a seizure?

Are you assuming medical care is a God given right?

Ask the Democrats, they will explain it I'm sure

Mexico and Florida need to reteam along with California. Call it New New Spain.

You are correct, misinformation on a lot of levels. The nose job would definitely require a general anesthetic. The amount of local should for a nose job should cause systemic toxicity. Most likely they botched the airway leading to a hypoxia arrest or there was some kind of allergic reaction. Lots of possibilities.

Assuming that this is being done in an outpatient facility, they would not have held her after the procedure. They would have transferred her to a hospital - not the clinic holding her and demanding payment, but the hospital and thus the Mexican government. I wonder if the family has any recourse against the clinic/anesthetist in Mexico? I bet not.

There probably wasn’t too much going on there to begin with.

First mistake was going to Mexico for any type of surgery.

Also, while trying to get her home, 3 American hospitals refused to take her as she did not have insurance.



A girl gets a stupid unnecessary elective surgery even though she can't afford it?

Wow. Ridiculous.

Not sure how reliable but this link suggests it was only $138 for the job.

Like chicken nuggets from BK, there comes a point where something is so cheap that it ceases to be a selling point and becomes a giant red flag. $138 for surgery is a great example of this.

Not Mexico’s fault. Not USAs fault. Her fault for seeking cheap, unqualified surgeons for an elective procedure.
