I had 4 hrs sleep on friday, left room for theatre at 9:30 and woke up in recovery at 11:10. Its 4:10 am and i have had 45 mins sleep. Im going to switch meds in morning cause i cant carry on like this.
I was like that honey,its like the GA made me hyper,had my op on 5/12/11,havent had a proper sleep since,im like a zombie, try and get a couple of hours in the day to re charge your batteries or you will be exhausted and that’s when the blues kick in,ive had them a couple of days now,big hugs,xx
Thanks Tina, i hope we both get a good sleep soon.
Me too,I look 90,hahahaha,at least I have a new nose,and you have fab breasts,all joking aside it does become quite distressing,try and rest as much as you can,if you are like me and used to been active your body is trying to adjust,its having to cope with repairing your breasts and although you need to rest your body clock is wondering what’s going on,if you feel up to it,try and have little walks around the house,your body will let you know when you have done enough,so if it starts to ache rest,the movement will also help the bowel,this tends to take the longest to wake up after GA,drink lots of water too,try to eat as much fruit and veg,and bran as possible,find something to read,that will tire your eyes,even if you are just napping you are still getting some rest.Hang in there honey,you will be back to normal before you know it.xxxx
Thanks Tina i will take all of your advice. Im not a pleasnt person when i dont get enough sleep. Hope you get some rest so that you can enjoy a lovely christmas and new yrs. I need to be on form so not to ruin xmas for my daughter.
