Spay surgery is much more routine and simple than spinal surgery. I would discuss the anesthesia problem with the vet, or perhaps get a second opinion from another veterinarian. If you get a second opinion, you will definitely need to take the medical records with you to be sure that the veterinarian knows which anesthetic gave the bad reaction during the spinal surgery. If you do go ahead and have her spayed, be sure to get blood work done before the surgery--that will let the doctor know if there are any additional health issues that need to be addressed prior to surgery. Good luck, and let us know what you decide!
