After Touch Up Surgery

Went back into the hospital on Wednesday. For some reason I didnt feel as relaxed and felt like the procedure went on forever! I must admit the local anesthetic was very sore this time. Again I could feel movement and a few pin pricks at one stage but told the doctor and he sorted out.

After the surgery you feel fine and on top of the world but that is before the anasthetic wears off. When it wears off I find a couple of hours I am very grumpy and sore. Got over it though and felt much better by the evening.

It is now Friday and had surgery on Wednesday. There is a certain bit that is quite sore when I sit down, I am worried a similar thing has happend to last time and there will be a bit of a bump again when it is healed but at least this time it shouldn't be sticking out. Will just have to see how things go.

Touch up

So I'm going back in to the hospital today. The bit I had mentioned in previous posts that stuck out after the surgery is still like that so he is going to sort it out today. He decided to book me in after our 3 month review so he would know it wasn't still swollen. I'm not sure how it happened but he said lots of anatomical words so I didn't really follow. Should be a shorter procedure today but still having to take time off work.

12 days after surgery check up

I had a check up with the nurse 12 days after surgery. Very quick visit. She had a look and said some of my stitches were still there and I mentioned the bit that was sticking out. She agreed and said that bit might need touched up then said she would see if the doctor was around to have a look. He was so came in to see. He said he said not to worry about it and he thought the area was still quite swollen and believed it would go down. So I've taken his word for it and he will have a look again in December, 3 months after surgery. In my opinion I don't think it's still swollen and I think that bit got missed out during surgery. If it is still the same in 3 months I'm going to insist it is touched up because i paid for the service so want to be happy with the results.

It's been another 4 days since then and that area is still the same. I also think it is a bit itchy and burny so I might go back to putting on the anti bacterial cream.
