I had to see the surgeon who is going to do my back operations on Monday. I was so stressed before meeting him and when I did he was far from friendly. He was going to use Latex on me which I am higly allergic to - throat swells up, breathing gets affected etc so I had to ask him not to use it - stupid thing was it was written in bright red across my notes.
Im now having two procedures done at the same time (well one after the other but in the same op) and I am so daunted about it all. Another thing that worried me was a lady came up to my husband and told him ways in which I could ease some of my symptoms as she heard every word that was said both by me and the surgeon in the consulting room. Whatever happened to patient confidentiality?
Hope everyone that has exams etc coming up are revising well.
For those expecting babies really soon I hope all goes well with the safe delivery of baby bump
For those of you in stressful situations, take each day as it comes, when you make it through to bedtime you have survived that day and the end to your troubles is another day closer. Rmeber to breathe properly, nice and deep and slowly.....it really does help, that and working out a plan of action to what is stressing you out.
Take care and Im thinking of you all
