Just went under for the first time a few days ago. Pretty sure the Xanax they gave me prior knocked me out before the anesthesia did. Only memory was getting up on the operating table then a few hours after I got home. No memory of anesthesia, waking up after the surgery or getting home. Woke up feeling groggy and didn’t realize ~10 hours passed. Couldn’t stand up and walk on my own until the next morning.

Extremely excited! Until 2 days prior to surgery lol. I had genioplasty and rhinoplasty. I think it’s going to make a hugely great difference!

And we’re all anonymous here so I don’t think it’s rude!

I am pretty young (25) so I think it’s less likely of a factor. But good to know and prepare for the possibility of being foggy for a while!

Thanks for the insight. All these symptom I googled were for the elderly which I am far from! This does make me feel a whole lot better. Thank you!

For context this was my first cosmetic surgery. From what I know, I was finished surgery around 3pm (haven’t gotten a chance to ask my caregiver theexact time yet as it’s 1am) and only started to remember things around 7 or 8 pm that night. I was also still very dizzy/out of it and texted my caregiver gibberish that weren’t even typos just random strings of letters. I could not sit up or walk by myself either. Now at 1 am I finally feel more normal. Starting to worry if o had an averse reaction to the anesthetic!

Thank you for your perspective! We’re they cosmetic surgeries as well?
