Is It Safe To Have A Spinal? Or Would I Be Better Off Having General Anesthesia

A MyHemophiliaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Berlin, NH

i need knee surgery, and maybe back surgery. I have a pace maker and can't have an MRI aslo, they want to inject dye into me back to see what is going on. I was told i could end up as a cripple if i bleed. Anyone know about this

GENERAL anesthesia because with a spinal you'll wake up with a headache and pain you don't want that
