    Hello m:

    Well, tell us what happened when you woke up? Were you terrified? Did you watch the procedure? Did you speak with the anesthesiologist? If you think your rights were violated, or you think you're a victim of malpractice, I'd visit a malpractice lawyer.. He won't charge for an initial consultation.

    Your options for what exactly; was the operation successful, were you harmed in any way? I don't know what you are getting at.
