Hi Alexandra, this was the ONLY thing that scared me too, I didn’t tell anyone until after the op so it was building up and building up but honestly I needn’t have worried! I had numbing cream out on my hands, I have a severe phobia of needles after having my last baby, my veins now collapse when I see a needle lol. Anyway, took me down chatted to me, (staff were ALL amazing!) put the cannula into my hand I didn’t feel a thing, said I was gonna feel like I’d had a few drinks and I was gone! Next thing I knew they were trying to wake me up in recovery, I was so tired I just wanted to sleep, when I woke up properly though and saw my boobs I was like ‘hell yeah!’ It’s understandable to be nervous, but you’ll be ok! It’ll be over before you know it, like Kate said if you had a reaction they have everything there that you would need 🙂 xx
