Hi Ann

I cried all the way to theatre and in the waiting area before you go in! But it was fine I was terrified I would feel things but as others have said you end up dopey not asleep but couldn't care less!

You will be fine and I completely understand lots of hugs

Dear Ann

Just got back from my morning walk and have read your posting.

Good luck with the op which is probably all done now and you've woken up in recovery wondering what all the worry was about!

Best wishes for a swift and pain free recovery.

Cheers Richard

Ann  au surgeon told me it would be spinal with a general. Anestatist told me it would be sedation. I told him no and to check with my surgeon. He came back and said ok so I had a general. I am told that with sedation you will not remember anything. Good luck Hun xxx

Ann, I really understand how you feel. I hope that when you read this, you will be recovering well. I'm sitting thinking about you. Please let me know how you are. Everyone kept saying to me, oh you'll be fine, I wanted to hit them. I won't say that to you( but you will, you know)

The joy of being pain free is so good. Xx

Ann hope you are done and back in the ward. I had mine done three weeks ago this Thursday I was up and walking to the toilet that evening.

Just do what they tell you and don't do too much.

Hi Ann

I am 6 weeks today after having my op. I had the spinal and I was scared to death but it works fine. The also gave me a twilight injection between the both I didn't feel a thing. Went to recovery and then to room I was discharged the next afternoon. Didn't have any side effects better then having those tubes down your thoart.

Good luck you will be feeling alot better soon.

Hi Ann

I hope by now your back on the ward and recovering. Worst is over and your recovery is starting.

We on this forum I am sure are thinking about you and I wish you a speedy recovery. Take it steady do what your told and by Christmas you will be dancing.

Please let us know how you progress.

Ann,

Hope all went well, I'm sure it did. I'm two weeks post op and feel great, to be honest the worst part for me was coming out of GA, I was sick for hours and needed to bring a bag with me whenever I went to use the potty. So maybe the spinal is better.
