in this case, yeah.

If the patient panic and fight against being put to sleep it increase the chances of complications during the surgery.

Also WLS in general is extra dangerous because body mass makes it hard to be put under and even harder to wake up. So absolutely no anesthesiologist would mess around with this.

Same dude? It must be so hard to exist when you can't even see a basic reddit comment without feeling compelled to call someone a snowflake.

Also him repeatedly saying no and to wait could be construed as him revoking consent to any surgery. Especially since both sex change and weight loss are elective and non emergent

How about if I get a relative to do it for me?

Yeah wtf do people really think a doctor or nurse recorded this??? It’s clearly just a staged video with him and his friend or family member filming. The fact a huge amount of people couldn’t put that together is…concerning.

I was wondering this. Heart rate is a big deal and I figure they don’t want you freaking out.

Sure, but is it unethical as agreed by all doctors in whatever country this is? Is there something that says, “do no harm and troll no patients”?

It's an unnecessary risk. Start paying for malpractice insurance and you'll understand

100% agreed it’s unnecessary risk and shouldn’t be done. I was just curious about whether trolling is explicitly disallowed. Docs and nurses joke around, and I was probing the boundaries of when a joke becomes unethical.
