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?

 

Sorry if this does fit here, or make sense couldn't find an ask docs community with my tired 1am brain.

Just had cosmetic surgery yesterday and wondering what the typical time is for remembering things. Also if you could add when you felt you could function (sit up without feeling dizzy, think straight, text anything but gibberish) again. Thanks in advance!

Lahaina was a old historic town, many of the buildings weren't updated to code. Especially on Front Street where most of the damage seems to be

I'm finally getting the cosmetic surgery I've been dreaming of next month. Very excited for it!
