I had mine today, yesterday at work I was thinking oh my god I can’t do it, what have I done etc. Got to hospital at 11am shaking feeling sick with nerves! The nurse came in and did pregnancy test, blood pressure and gave me my sexy gown and paper pants to put on! After this my nerves had completely gone, they really put you at ease.
Then later on the surgeon came and drew on me then the anaesthetist came and asked me some questions did all the blood pressure listened to my chest etc. I went to surgery about 5:30pm – I had SUCH a long wait, I was so bored and hungry!
Didn’t even feel the cannula go in, one minute I was chatting away about aperol spritz and the next awake demanding the lights be turned off hahaha.
Woke up from the anaesthetic then straight back to sleep and woke up again in recovery around 6:30 and got wheeled back to my room about 7. Had regular blood pressue checks and was given water, biscuits, toast and tea!
I really don’t know why I worried so much, I promise it is absolutely fine!! In fact, I enojoyed it.
Good luck for tomorrow, I hope everything goes wonderfully! Xxxxx
