Wow, mad4cavs, sounds awful. Are you in much pain? Or just very tired? It’s still an operation, albeit minor, I wouldn’t expect to be galloping around from the get go. I am due for the same soon and I plan to slumber for one week at least. Which pain relief are you using, if any?
Hi, I was shattered for a few weeks, it takes a good while for the anaesthetic to get out of your system. Take it steady and sleep when you need to! Xx
I was surprised just how tired the GA made me, but husband pointed out it is that and the lack of sleep after diagnosis! Take it easy and don’t feel bad when feel tired. Do little more each day and don’t rush. Had WLE and SNB took 10 days off work and struggled when back
The hospital recommended taking one paracetamol & one ibroproven together. It worked for me. Hope you feel better soon
