Will I wake up !? Scared to death

I have rhinoplasty booked for 4 weeks time (8tj dec) and I am in absolute bits a bag of nerves thinking I won’t wake up from the aneasthetic , I begged & pleaded with the nurse to ask him to do it under local & sedation but she said no he doesn’t do it under anything but a GA. I’m working myself up so much doesn’t help I read of people not waking up from aneasthetic during cosmetic surgery. Anything anyone can recommend to atleast calm my nerves. I was like this before my BA Having a panic attack before they put me out , I just don’t want to embarrass myself again, any words from others would help too xx

Oh I completely understand how you feel, I think its such a natural thing to be worried about. The risk of not waking up is very very very slim. I mean, seriously seriously unlikely. Its also so so quick, before you know it you’re under and back round again. I am absolutely petrified of needles, so so scared but the nurse working with the anaesthetist was just absolutely brilliant and put me at ease x

I have anxiety too and spent the whole morning glued to the toilet! My nurse was really understanding and patient with me, im sure they have to deal with people that are nervous and anxious of all levels fairly often. You just have to trust that these people really know what they’re doing and that even in bad cases it’s usually people with some form of defect or very overweight etc so as long as you’re fit and healthy it’s near enough never going to happen x

Hey, I’ve been under before and it’s nothing to worry about, your talking to the nurse then next thing you know your awake and she’s telling you it’s all over. It’s extremley rare/ none exsistant it’s something like 0.01-0.016% and when you think about it doctors sometimes put very sick people into a coma as it best for them. Don’t worry 🙂 xx

I know it’s slim but I
Think what if I’m that slim chance. I’m so morbid lol , I get told why are you worrying as you woke up from you boob job what’s to say you won’t wake up from this one . Recovery and pain doesn’t phase me I just want to survive lol xx

Lol hun I know exactly what you mean about just wanting to survive!! I had mine yesterday and was exactly the same , because I’ve got a hole in my heart I was convinced something was going to go wrong but I was absolutely fine!! Anaesthetist wasn’t even phased by it 🙂 you’re in safe hands! xxx

You’ll be fine 🙂 my brother had 1/3 of his intestine removed due to cancer and he was fine and that was a much bigger op 🙂 that small percentage is really for serious ops like ops on the heart, lungs etc. they won’t let you come to any harm 🙂 x

I bloody hope so girls I hope my admission
Is early and I get operated on first ! As the waiting will make me go crazy and I’ll bolt it, I actually tried to run away from the operating when I had my boobs done I remember sitting up saying I’m sorry i can’t do this, I looked down and the white stuff ( must of even aneasthetic ) was empty , that’s all I can remember haha! You’re starting to slowly
Put me at ease so Thankyou xx

I was like this my boyfriend thought I was being ridiculous and now that iv had it done I relise I was just worrying myself you will be fine Hun just try not to think bout it I knw that’s hard saying that but the more u think into it the worse u feel I had panic attacks in the morning but my boyfriend managed to take my mind away from the actual surgery keep yourself busy until u have it done good luck xxx

My boyfriend laughs at me and says I’m
A hypochondriac lol! He says for someone who has this much surgery you shouldn’t even be worried, but I can’t help it, I know I’ll be a mess as much as I try to calm myself down . I know It will be fine just my stupid morbid brain goes on overdrive I get a headache and I think I’m dying lol xx

I’m exactly the same Chloe!!! I don’t know how i’m going to be on the day, have a very big feeling I will back out last minute lol xx

I’ve just got out of theatre in the last 30 mins for my BA…..absolutely nothing to worry about chickie! You’re in sage hands. Xxxx

Safe. Haha 🙂

Ah congrats on the new additions 🙂 I’m
Absolutely shitting it I think it’s because rhinoplasty is slightly longer than a BA so I’m worried about that . I’m driving myself mental I keep thinking this time in 4 weeks I’ll be dead lol xx

Don’t think like that sweetheart, you’ll cause yourself unnecessary stress. Just try and relax as best you can, you’re in safe hands and just try your best to enjoy it. You’ll think after what was all the fuss about ! 🙂 xxxx

so its all done for you @Yalouise…congrats girly x

Your be fine Hun, try not to worry I know it’s easier said then done. I have a 5 year old little girl and in the end I was convinced I wouldn’t be waking up and seeing her again. Googled the hell out of death rates and everything lol! How morbid is that ha! Got myself in a right state. But it went well I had an uplift and ba. Your be fine 🙂 I wish I had panicked so much before your just have a little sleep n wake up with a new nose 😉 hope you don’t mind the add xxx

Oh babe you’re so like me!!! I googled death rates too then you come across the one story about someone dying during the procedure and you’re like ‘that’s it I’m going to die’ lol I have a 5 year old too and I’m feeling the same thinking I’ll never see her again and she’ll found out mummy died during cosmetic surgery sounds so selfish lol xx
