    Hi everyone,
    So I’m 5 days PO and feel horrendous. I wanted my BA for sooo long & expected a few miracles with recovery time etc I usually have a high pain threshold but this has been a lot harder than I imagined it to be. My biggest phobia is being sick and the anxiety I have just even writing about it is unreal I don’t know if I’m just making myself feel worse because I know every time I have to take the antibiotics I’m going to feel sick or what. I’m going back to work on Thursday and dreading it the thought of being in a hot office feeling unwell is horrible.
    Does anyone have any advise on how long it will be until I feel like myself again(less sick and sore lol)? I’m usually positive all the time but I’m finding it hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel this morning 🙁

    xoxo

    Hiya, omg i was the exact same! i have a massive phobia of being sick and that was all i was worried about the whole time. nothing else! i was never sick throughout the whole thing, im now just over 4 weeks post op. the antibiotics didnt even make me feel sick if anything i was constantly starving. if you have been on them for this long they definately wont make you sick now! i was only on my for 5 days, just make sure you always eat a little something before eachone even if your not hungry at all. you will feel so much better soon i was the exact same for a week or so but then it just suddenly changes and now i feel it was the best thing i have ever done and it is so worth it all! xx

    I’m sooo glad I’m not the only one who has felt like this I feel loads better now I know I’m not imagining it! I’m sure its the anxiety which is making me feel this way mainly because I’ve always had a bad experience with antibiotics even though the anaesthetists and marion assured me I’d be fine. I can’t wait to finally enjoy it all xoxo

    I know how you feel I also have anxiety and I think we honestly suffer the worst, it’s taken me a week to start feeling better, a lot of it is mind over matter really you just gotta tell yourself that you are fine and this is all normal, I still wake feeling sick every morn tho weird, it does get better, I thought there was no light for me but I’ve improved so much, if I can do it anyone can lol xxx
