now telling them i wear and trying to gracefully navigate around the embarassment is just not an option. and i dont think it would intervene with the operation, or possibly become a problem for me in any way.

unless they want to attach stuff to my head for anaesthesia? do they? im so scared i dont know what to do guys. i still have an appointment to talk about the surgery and ask questions, but the anxiety is already killing me.

i searched the forum and stumbled on some old posts, some of which were relaxing, some of which not so much. maybe some fellow wearers have had surgery under general anaesthesia done before, and can tell me about any possible complications?

everything else is awesome over here, which is why i never stop by to say hello, sorry guys

Yep ive had facial surgery while wearing a topper.... three times....
i never said a word...so chill.. unless youv'e got your hernia on the top of your head of course... lol
