20, Primary Rhinoplasty - Glendale, CA

Hey guys! I have been lurking on RealSelf for a few months now but originally discovered Dr. Grigoryants through his website about three years ago during my senior year of high-school. I have wanted a rhinoplasty for so long and it feels a bit surreal that I'm finally going to have it done in two days. My nose is crooked, long, and I have a bump on my bridge - my nose is a huge source of self-esteem issues and anxiety for me, so I'm hoping after recovery I can finally not feel so negative about my profile. I'm so excited to share my journey with all of you and to follow all of yours, too!

I never thought it would be this hard. The nausea is excruciating, can't even spray mouth with biotene without puking, I take a sip of water, I puke. Nothing in my stomach. The puking is so violent, I can feel so much pain in my face from the pressure, I sit over the toilet gagging and it hurts so bad, only to puke out yellow foam, I haven't eaten or kept anything down in three days. I'm so sad. Since surgery, nausea has not gone away and forget about the meds, I take it and then vomit. no pain pills, no antibiotics, forget it...it all ends up in the toilet. Drip pad is so bloody all the time and I barely have energy to change it. Haven't slept since surgery either, can't, not even for 20 minutes. I feel so defeated )':
