General anesthesia can permanently decrease neurological function. I wouldn't do it even if it gave me a third kidney, and I'm less concerned about my (((IQ))) than many rats, which is why I feel like EA folks just aren't aware of the risks.

Alas, I received it during one surgery in my childhood, and my memory was shit ever since. Perhaps it was inevitable, but I'm not convinced.
