I am thinking it is a compressive thing. So many people have compressive issues, after surgeries. Just lying on your back may compress one side of your spine just enough if there were subtle problems there to begin with..
Midazolam does interact with other drugs however...so typing into a drug checker with your other meds would reveal that.

I'm guessing he just used the midazolam as an initial sedative, not the main course, so to speak. Would/could Nitrous oxide effect just one side?
I'm also starting to think it is from positional (compression), since it's not improving as the anesthesia wears off. Even the doctor made a brief mention of this as well. I think he's just hoping it was the anesthesia so it would be resolved in a few days.
In your experience with others having this type of problem, does it eventually improve...in a relatively short period of time?
