I was on long term Paxil Cr 12.5 mg and somehow it reacted with the nervous system either from the spinal nerve block anesthesia or the post surgical antibiotics. It was so severe, still struggling after 20 months.

RED FLAG for me!!!
I'm on paroxetine (same as Paxil) now and have been since about mid-2023.
For sure I'll tell any future anesthesiologist about it and for them to do a deep research into any risk with what may be planned for me.
Your's advice is massively important for me and possibly many others to be assertive about any chance of such interaction .
We owe you many thanks in advance. You're a true blessing for us by sharing your suspicion of an interaction. Four Stars for you, our buddy.
