So here’s how my day went, my admission time was 11.30 but mum was worried about traffic so we left at 9.30 and arrived at highgate for 10.30!
The lady on reception made a call and asked them to get my room ready early so I was in there by about 11ish. A nurse came in and asked some questions took my blood pressure, temperature and weighed me etc. she then brought me my lovely stockings and nickers etc!
I got changed and then Mr Fallahdar came along to see me, he asked me if I was going for 280 or 310 and I said 310! Then he said there going to be big! And that scared me a bit so I was saying ‘I don’t know what to do’ and he was like well we can cancel it and come back in a few weeks!! So I quickly said no lets go for 310s I had already made my mind up on them! and didn’t want to change my mind on the day.
He drew on me took some pictures and asked if we had any questions which I didn’t coz I asked about a 1000 at my consultation! He left and I forgot to ask what time I would be going but I assumed it wouldn’t be for a while yet.
Next thing I know a lovely man (I think named Matthew) came in and he said he would be looking after me throughout the surgery and wouldn’t let anything go wrong! This made me feel a bit better. He asked a couple of questions and then said come on then let’s go! So I gave my mum and sister a hug and walked down to the theatre!!
Now I was really nervous!! I had to lay down on a bed and I was shaking like mad, but he was really reassuring and kept chatting to me to keep me distracted, I said I just wana fall asleep I don’t wana see anything! And then another man came in and asked me a couple questions about where i live what I work as and he told me Im guna feel like I’ve had one too many cocktails as he put the anaesthetic in. I remember saying you know most people like the feeling of anesthetic well I don’t like this and he said oh I think it’s nice! Then I said promise you’s will look after me and that’s the last things I remember until I woke up!
I woke up in the recovery room and was croaking at the nurse! My throat was really saw and I could hardly talk! I think I kept asking if everything went okay but I can’t remember her answering me!(even tho im sure she did) Next thing I know I really wanted to cry and just burst into tears! They took me back to my room and I was sobbing and moaning that it hurt, mr Fallahdar came in to check on me and I said I was fine but in pain, he said I was the only person who said they were in pain that day (surely not? Lol) he said bye and the nurse gave me some painkillers and I went to sleep.
Apparently I was gone well over 2 hours so I’m assuming I took a while to wake up from the anesthetic.
After that I had loads of cups of tea and toast and then dinner later on!
All the staff were so lovely and reassuring! Your in safe hands at highgate!
Hope this story is helpful I know it helped me reading these! Just to give you an idea what to expect
