Have you ever been under general anesthesia? What was it like? Did anything strange happen? (sopuli.xyz)

As a compliment to the thread about near death experiences I'd really like hearing people's experiences of losing consciousness under general anesthesia and what's it like coming back.

Also interested of things anesthetists may have noticed about this during their career.

I was under anesthesia a couple of years ago for a minor procedure. The medicine they gave me to put me under made my insides feel really warm before I passed out. When I woke up I couldn't stop coughing and thought that I had contacted COVID while under. I did not, but it took a while before I was fully coherent.
