Hi Girls, life story coming up…..
So had my first BA 25th October last year and had my revision surgery yesterday 6th dec with Dr Andrea, what a bloody day…. admission time was 11am and I got there for about 10:30 and got took straight to my room for my obs done etc, anesthetist came in my room to say there would be around a 2/3hour wait at 11ish so I just tried to get some sleep on the bed, Dr Andrea came in the room at 1pm to draw me up and I passed out on him AGAIN! (I did this the first time too, my god!) this time was a little worse and I ended up having to have a drip and oxygen think it was with nerves and I hadn’t had a thing to eat since 9:30pm the night before, I literally just wanted to go down to theatre and get it over with! Went down about 5:30pm and last time I looked at the clock it was 5:45 and was back in my room for 8pm. I knew i was going to be in more pain than the 1st BA because of the lifting of the crease and the stitches etc cause Dr had already warned me but I’m literally on strict instructions can’t lift my arms passed 45degrees for 6weeks, can’t drive for a month, breast band under my boobs for 4weeks, and have to sleep up right for 4weeks too, but I want to do everything I was told because he doesn’t give instructions for no reason, I’m a little disappointed he left the hospital before coming to see me as he also put new implants in which the nurses couldn’t tell me why because he didn’t tell them but I will see him at one of my appointments so will find out then. MYA have been absolutely brilliant with me the 1st time and now the 2nd time, so has Dr Andrea, Elle from Newcastle clinic is an absolute diamond and one of the nurses called Judith from first trust hospital was amazing I wish I had her all day and not just for night shift. Lovely lovely woman! I’m in absolute agony today but just getting on with it and keeping on top of medication, my stomach is absolutely huge with bloating too, hoping to be settled a little by Christmas Day for my little boy, and again sorry for the life story haha x
