FFS. Boston. Setting things aright.

[hundun]

Boston. My Mum is asleep across the room. Bless her.

Lots of running around in the morning (appointment at 9am / 6am BC time), and everything seems set. Bloodwork is in. Anesthesiologist is done. Pre-surgical consult is good, I think. The American medical system makes me twitchy, but everyone seems nice, and much better at ther jobs than they are at

Getting FFS sounds like fun.

I had jaw surgery done four years ago, under general anaesthesia of course. Nobody advised me of any psychological afteraffects, so the mini panic attack I had immediately coming out of it was a bit of a surprise. Though it could have been worse.

I remember how scared I was the first time I went under for surgery, no one told me crap about anaesthesia and I was worried I'd have nightmares while I slept during the surgery (nope, you are awake and asleep and awake again so fast)

And I was scared I'd wake up in so much pain. But other than a killer headache I actually thought they had changed their minds and not done my surgery...until I reached down under the covers and felt a huge cast on my leg.

Threw up about half an hour later and had a slightly odd taste in my mouth for a bit but that was it.

I hope everything goes well and that you are super happy with the results, take care *hugs* and good luck ^_^~

I'm thinking of you, dear. Good luck.
