I think the anesthetic and procedure combine to creat biological changes which impact the mood. Even though the drug leaves your system in a few hours (depends on drug), there are lingering effects of the drugs so it's hard to tell but most people feel crummy after any type of surgery, even minor ones. So I'm not surprised with a mood crash in someone who has a chemical imbalence and therefore very sensitive to medication effects...SG
