Hey guys.
I'm heading to Seoul next month to get rhinoplasty, and I am absolutely terrified of dying on the table. I'm getting sedation anaesthesia instead of general, which is known to be much safer, but it doesn't comfort me in the slightest.
Has anyone ever had rhinoplasty while still being partially awake? I don't want to be completely knocked out, so I'd prefer to get just enough IV sedation to relax me but still stay conscious. It would make me feel tons calmer.
Also, does anyone know of any stories where patients have died due to sedation anaesthesia?
