Honestly I'm very scared about this topic. I'am planning on getting breast implants & I heard the surgery takes about 1 hour and a half. What if I wake up during the surgery? That is very scary... And then again, what if I DONT wake up after the surgery which that one I'm not to concerned about honestly cause I should wake u right ? But the waking up during the surgery is bizarre. Can some one please tell me the People at risk of waking up during surgery?! Cause I don't want to be one of them!
