Evening all
So after getting my fissure back in September 2013, I am finally getting my botox injections next Tuesday under general anesthetic.
I am very nervous as my pain is now at a very low level and I am functioning well. (albeit on a very limited no fibre diet). I have been able to fly a couple of times and recently did a 2.5 hour drive, all of which would have been unthinkable not so long ago. Life is really quite good right now and when I poop it is like a cow pat which doesn't hurt me at all.
Also, I have to have another operation in connection with the breast cancer I have. They want to allow me about 2 weeks to get over the botox op before doing the cancer one.
Can those of you that have had botox give me some idea of what it is going to be like. For example how much pain/discomfort am I likely to have when the anesthetic wears off, what will I be able to do? Will I be able to drive/work etc.
I am just trying to plan as I have been warned that the cancer surgery is substantial and will have a longer recovery period than the original mastectomy.
Thanks for any info :)
