A member asked:
With gilberts syndrome should general anaesthetic be discussed with doctor and also other choices of anaesthetic ie, epidural explained for surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gilberts Syndrome: Certainly you should discuss the type of anesthetic. The main issue is the metabolism of the various drugs used in the anesthetic. You need to make sure that the Status of the liver and blood be fully evaluated before the surgery.
