I Have been informed by Dr G that I must be developing a tolerance to the Dormican. With my last ER I had a combination of Dormican and Pethidine. It didn’t help, I was still in pain, conscious and confused and very very upset, I just couldn’t stop sobbing. What do they do with patients like me during ER? Is full Anaesthesia an option?

At our clinic we give the patients full conscious sedation by administering Dormicum, Pethidine and Propofol. This leads to complete sedation without any pain or recollection of the event. You do however need full theatre facilities in order to do it this way.

Some ladies have experienced very uncomfortable pain despite the use of Dormicum at ER. Are there any additional measures one can take to minimise pain or should one just rely on Dormicum?

At our clinic we feel that using only Dormicum is not adequate. We therefore do full conscious sedation with Dormicum, propofol and pethidine. Our patients are therefore completely unaware of the procedure.
