What if I had a problem with anestesia in the past

About 2 years ago I had to have an emergency c-section. I was given an epideral which seemed to be a godsend at the time. That was until I realized that the medicine made me sick to the stomach and I actually vomitted during the procedure. This did not seem like a big deal until I got a fever on day 3 of my hospital stay. It seems that I had gotten pnemonia from vomitting while I was on my back and something ended up getting in my lungs. I ended up having to be there for 2 extra weeks. This only concerns me because not only will I not be wake during the procedure, but It will also take a much longer time to finish. Ok no my question is Is this a major concern? or should I definitely ask the doctor for a different anastetic? any advice?
