I had surgery today. Originally I was only planning to have osteotomy because my nose bones were wide, but the doctor said, "they're not that wide though" ㅡㅡ ;; and then explained the extra procedures I could do. He said hump reduction, osteotomy, raising the nose bridge, and reducing the nostrils ㅡ..ㅡ and I thought, wow, that's a lot. But since the extra cost was almost nothing, I said just do whatever you think is best, changed into the surgical gown, and the consultant girl told me to take off even my underwear, which surprised me ㅡㅡ I didn't have to take it off though... I got an IV and went to the operating room (I was a little scared), and with the words, "Now we'll put you to sleep," I blacked out. When I woke up, I was in the recovery room, wow~~ ㅡ0ㅡ I had surgery at 2:30, and when I woke up it was around 5 o'clock (the surgery took about 2 hours). I woke up and stood up right away. I didn't feel that sluggish, I was just hungry... My nose didn't hurt at all, and only my head was throbbing a little, so it was actually weird how fine I felt. I usually get headaches, so I figured it was just that. After a while the nurse gave me water, and when I tried it, ugh~~ because of the general anesthesia my mouth felt strange, so the water tasted really bad. I thought about sleeping and leaving at night, since I didn't want to just go right away, but I couldn't sleep ㅡ..ㅡ I watched TV, messed around a bit, talked with the doctor for a while, then chatted with the nurse girl a bit too, and around 10 o'clock I headed home. The bleeding kept coming out little by little, but breathing isn't that uncomfortable. Everyone, don't worry and go ahead with the surgery.
