Think I have been in some sort of denial since I found out the plan for surgery I am just getting ready to leave for my isotope ready for MX tomorrow morning and feeling sick at the thought and feeling very sorry for myself. Got to be at the hospital for 7.30 and they are hoping to let me home tommorrow eveing but I am now terrified. Not sure why posting on here but I know you ladies will all understand.
Hi Shocked
Just wanted to say good luck for tomorrow.
I had my mx just over a week ago and so definitely understand how you are feeling right now, it’s to be expected before such a major thing.
If it gives you any reassurance at all, the recovery so far and realisation post surgery has been much better than I’d anticipated. If you feel like you need to stay in the hospital over night then tell them - I ended up in 2 nights and I’m glad I did. It’s not ideal, but also quite reassuring have the nurses there when you feel quite vulnerable. Make sure you stay on top of the pain meds, definitely rest as much as possible and take all help offered.
I hope it all goes well, you’ll be amazed at how strong you can be (I have been!) xxx
