3 days after surgery..

Hey.. was I under sleep anesthesia? Anyway, for 2 and a half hours I slept just fine.. When I woke up, they were putting silicone in my nose bridge.. Was that not it? Anyway.. And then soon after, the stitches..... Anyway, but.. I had an open rhinoplasty, so after tying one nostril, the doctor said, "Why are you enduring so well?" Then the nurse said, "She promised to endure well in return for making it pretty.." They said that.. At the end, they were dabbing on something to reduce swelling on my whole face, and when they asked, "This hurts the most, right?" I was like, no;; and they said I was really good at enduring. But the night of the surgery I came close to dying;; It throbbed and ached. Maybe because it was open? Everyone says it doesn't hurt, but I really couldn't sleep until 7 and lay groaning alone in my room, then woke up at 9. I barely fell asleep. Thankfully, on the second day it doesn't hurt. haha It's bearable But they told me to come on Friday, the 4th day.. If I go then, will they remove the stitches? -_- Are they dissolvable? Anyway, this tape.. When do you remove the tape? I had surgery that brought the nose downward.. They told me not to touch this at all (though that goes for anyone), and if I remove it, my nose will go up. That's what they said. Hmm.;;;; It's really itchy..ugh..;; My nose doesn't even feel like my nose.. Anyway, when do you really remove this? It doesn't seem like my swelling is that severe. Yesterday it was really intense, but starting today it's going down quickly? Only the area between my eyes...is swollen.. When do you remove it. And for those of you who had open surgery like me.. And those who had surgery that brought the nose downward.. Did it last a long time? Ah, it's so painful. I'm going crazy.; Hng hng hng. Never again;; .. Please reply...
