Had surgery,too much anesthesia. woke up bp 186 heart rate 125. very anxious since then. could this have messed nervous system?its been one year

No: The effects of anesthesia wear off very quickly. Certainly within a few hours to days. This would not "mess up" your system or give you a long lasting effect. I suspect something else is a little off like essential hypertension. Get checked out by a qualified health professional.
