Here's what happened-
arrived at hospital at 7am, shown into the room.
went down for anaesthetic at 10:15. Was going to be gassed as I have bad needle phobia, but was brave at the last minute and actually had the needle-out in seconds!
woke up at 11:50 and took back to the room.
felt wonderful, no pain,phoned everybody, said it was a breeze-haha! little did I know!
my surgeon came in at 10pm and said all the painkillers given to me in theatre would have worn off and this was as bad as it was gonna get. "Great", I said, "thanks for giving me my life back".
stayed up until midnight so that I could have paracetamol to keep on top of the pain and have a good nights sleep.
woke up at 2am in AGONY! Had to have morphine as I'm allergic to most medicines. it took the edge off it, but not completely.
at 4am, started getting pain in upper stomach, called the nurse, it got so bad, I couldn't breathe and my stomach had gone into spasm and it was all rigid right through to my back. The pain got worse and I thought I was having a heart attack, but it was post-op wind! How embarrassing, but man, that was painful.
stayed up the rest of the night and got home at 2pm.
cant take anything but paracetamol which doesn't even put a dent in the pain. This is a nightmare!
dreading the bathroom when it happens, especially as I've got stitches.
This is the worst day ever! its got to get better!
Thank you so much everyone for all your support and help before my op-you've all been so great

My goodness - maybe it was good that your skin-tag gave you trouble - this way you "cleared" all problems at once !!!! That fissure was time -bomb :( !!!
