D Day Thursday 19th June 2008
Today i had my surgery to repair AT. I had to go over to Whyalla - 45 mins drive for day surgery.
I was suppose to fast from 6 am, but my partner suggested to start from midnight as you never know what could happen - just as well i listened to him for a change because when i got there the nurse came out and ask if i was here for sugery - no i was just sitting here in a wheelcahir (long cooridors to get to day surgery unit) for the sake of it - i didnt say that but like duh. Any way people had turned up and some had not fasted properly so i was upped on the list instead of waiting til the late afternoon i went into surgery at 10 am out of recovery at 12 noon and on the way home at 1.30 pm.
When getting home my partner decides that now he will have to buy a new recliner for me. So i ended up with a new cut, AT repaired, bigger backslab and a new lovely leather ounge suite - too dear just to buy one receliner why not buy a suite with 2 chairs and 2 recliner at the end of the lounge.
Pain was pretty stable just more of an ache than anything else.
