Ok, i was first storing the current session id from some insert statement, 
thanks now i can just access it directly from response.session_id.

I guess my logic is wrong since i am running all these queries in the same 
function, i end up inserting the current session_id and testing it against 
itself (expecting it to be different sometimes), which will not happen for 
any user session. Any idea of how i could set it up such that the next time 
a user logs in with a different session, then i can trigger some operation??
