Guest guest Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 : Like you I was anxious and wish there was something that reduced my anxiety before the surgery. I was wheeled into the operating room at 0730 and remember laying down and after that I was out like a light, I had already had an IV put in earlier so the DR's just slipped the anesthesia into the IV. My surgery was four and a half hours. My lower jaw was pulled back and the upper jaw was lowered with a bone graft from my hip. Well, I remember waking up at 1400 in the recovery room. The surgeon said the surgery was done by 1200, so I spent two hours sleeping after the surgery was complete. As of yesterday, I am 15 weeks post-op and things are going well. Good luck to you.
