Yesterday !!

Comment Published at 13:5713:5728 comments28 comments68 Visits68 VisitsReport

So yesterday I had to be at the hospital for 12pm . From then i wasnt allowed any visitors until I was back on the ward. I had my temp weight etc apparantly i needed to do a urine before surgery even though i couldent go until the matron pointed out its impossible for me to be pregnant so it doesent matter.

So then it was to see the surgeon and anethatist  and i was informed i was actually having 2 operations and if there is a bleed in my ovary he will remove it and if the right tube is damaged he will take that too.

Before i knew it it was time for surgery so off i went to theatre. I was very impressed with myself as it was the 1st time i have had anathetic without magic cream. He put the needle in my hand and put my hand in the middle of my chest. and started to put the anathetic in in went the anathetic he said your going to go to sleep in a minute i think we got to 6 from 10 and i was gone.

I warned the anethatist i may freak when i wake and i di i thought i was at Torbay again but he was there and reminded me i was in exeter not torbay .Then the surgeon came to see me and said that surgery went well . The cyst was removed the endo was burnt off the endo can come back will just have to see if i get any symptoms over the next 4 months. Though the cyst wont come back .

As for the tube it was cleared and he put blue dye in my tube and it is working . The cyst wasnt in my ovary as thought it was behind so the ovary was also saved . I was also given endo treatment and something done to the tissue.

I was taken back to the ward and was lifted from the trolley onto the bed. I fell back to sleep for a bit woke up determined to go home. Then Jerry had arrived i asked him when i was allowed home he said they are getting me some toast and tea i need to eat drink and pee before going home me being a spoilt brat went off form y wee came back there was my tea and toast cold toast i must add. Butter and jam i dont like jam and waste not want not so i gave it to jerry to have for brekfast today haha . I ate my toast (except the burnt bits ) a few mins later i ran to the toilet and threw up lol ssshhh . I was sick another 3 or so times abd didnt say anything apart from i felt sick as i wanted to go home . She said i really should stay in overnight as i was unwell but i just wanted to go home. I got caught out tough cos while taling to her i needed to be sick but im stubborn and went home anyway.

Since ive been home ive mainly been sleeping.Oh ive cried quite a bit too but im alright. I cant sit up for too long as it hurts I feel like a dot to dot drawing . Ive been cut bellybutton , knicker line and left side of my stomach. But still i will be recovered soon and feling better and fingers crossed the endo doesent come back.

Now im at home resting up and not having to move much be back in my bed soon me thinks gotta ring my nan later foirst though when gets home from bingo she has a busier social life than me.

Luv Emz xxx

Re: Yesterday !!

Great news that your ovaries and tubes are all still intact. Once you're all stuck back together, you'll be able to make plans for the future that you thought you might not be able to. I'm so pleased for you.

Keep on resting - take the opportunity to read some books and watch tv.

Re: Yesterday !!

So sorry you had to go through all that Em! I know EXACTLY how it feels. I developed cysts over and over again...having 3 separate laparoscopy surgeries to remove them (at least they cut the same three spots~can hardly see them now). One time the cyst was so big that it had completely taken over my insides, pushing everything out of the way...squashing and killing one of my ovaries (they had to remove it). It kept happening...with the endometriosis finally getting outside my uterus and tying around my intestines (complete hysterectomy at 33).

Please please please continue to stay on top of it and continue to get early treatment to avoid my dilemma!!!! I'm just glad you got it all taken care of and there wasn't any problem with your ovary!!

Take care, get lots of rest, and the pain from the gas dissipating is probably the worst part.

Re: Yesterday !!

Gees i am so sorry you have had to go through that. When i went to surgery the plan was to take the tube as they thought it was totally damamged and if they trook it the other would start working but luckily after he cleaned it all and put the dye through all was ok and there was no need . They thought via scans including an MRI  the cyst was actually inside the ovary but it worked out it was behind so i got to keep tht too. I was very luckly the endo could come back yet. Just have to watch my symptoms over time i just hopoe it doesent the last 7 and a half months have been hell.

The gas has gone now it was horrible so painful now i just need this soreness to go away and to be able to put clothes n it just rubs o n everything. My skin has gone so dry near the wounds so irritating. xxx

Re: Yesterday !!

 Pleased to hear that the surgery went well, sweetie and it is all good news about saving your ovaries....you must feel stoked about that....you were so concerned about losing them.

Now don't go over doing it, just rest as much as possible to allow your body to recover, any surgery is major and takes time for the body to heal itself.

I hope Barry is taking real good care of you and spoiling you like you deserve to be.

Glad to have you back, sweetie.

Loads of Love Mum xxxx

Re: Yesterday !!

hay Em, at least cos you cant move around much you can just stay on minti, key hole surgery  is great the recovery period is much less, my sis had the same surgery a few weeks age and she was up and about in 4 days still in a bit of pain but nothing like before.

get well soon hun,

Love Anita XXX

Hey Emz. I am sorry that I missed all of this, I have been away all week, but I am so glad to hear that alli s well and especially that it hasnt effected your fertility! Now we just have to keep our fingers crossed for the endo not to come back.

You are not going to know yourself once the pain is gone. How long has it been?

good luck with everything Emz and love you!

Re: Yesterday !!

Dot to dot... I hope it draws a pretty picture ; )  What's most important is what's inside and that those insides are all fixed up.  I wish you had stayed in hospital to get some extra TLC you naughty girl!  Make sure you actually do rest at home, you don't want to undo all that good work by looking after the girls or cooking or doing anything except rest, (and keep us up to date when you are up to it). xox
