Surgery

[prettygoodyear]

Surgery did not go to plan. At least not for me. I was supposed to go home the same day, but ended up spending two extra nights in the hospital because I was in so much pain. Apparently I suffer from nerve damage and pain. The burning sensation is really painful. Chances were slim it happened during surgery, I was even told before that this surgery usually doesn't cause too much pain. I am the unlucky one once more. Pain medication doesn't seem to help much, although the pain is sometimes less. It's supposed to get better, but this morning I was in so much pain it only seemed to get worse again. Currently it's okay, but I'm also high on morphine.

My emotions are all over the place. My freedom is yet again limited and the pain is also limiting me. I really hope that in the next few days I'll become myself again, with less pain.

Gosh I'm so sorry!
When I was in the hospital recently and before I got the surgery the morphine didn't do much for me... it took the edge off for maybe an hour before it got really hard again. Thankfully I had the surgery pretty quickly so it improved after that.
I hope you feel better ASAP!
