I had a headache after being put out for surgery. The nurses said it happens. As for the air in the IV they said it has to be straight up a whole needle syringe filled with air to kill you. They explained to me about how those little air bubbles get dealt with. I forgot to be honest but I do know that their explanation calmed me down and I have gotten over that fear with IVs. Just ask a nurse/doctor if it really is bugging you. I hope all gets better for you and you have a speedy recovery.

A few little air bubbles in the line mean absolutely nothing! I assure you!
