Countdown to my 2nd hip replacement - feeling fragile

[Jaycey]

So feel very reassured that the time is right!

Well, another confirmation you are doing the right thing.

Happy I could help! I'll be there with you in spirit @uktanny . Almost there!

Hi.. they're giving me fentonyl in my pca. I have no idea what that is. The anaesthatist was very rushed and didn't really listen to me. He's giving me gabapenton too . I'm going down soon xx

 

[Jaycey]

You are in good hands @uktanny ! Take care!

 

[uktanny]

Hi.. think they've moved the lists around, still waiting

@uktanny - Thinking of you today!

 

[Zelda]

I hope everything went well today - looking forward to seeing you posting on the other side!

 

[Jaycey]

Hope all is well @uktanny . Post when you feel up to it on the other side.

When they ask what is your pain level 1-10 say 10!

Hope this catches you @uktanny - I was asked at regular intervals to rate my pain and I wasn't shy to speak out. The aim is a perfect ZERO every time. They also asked whether I felt any nausea and again if I felt even slight discomfort I fessed up. All best wishes to you- will be watching out ....

 

[uktanny]

Hi guys well what a difference! I had no pain, yes no pain at all that first night! I'm too tired to speak now, but will pop in and couple of days to explain and update feeling happy x

@uktanny Thrilled for you

 

[Jaycey]

Hey Tan - I am so glad to hear that your pain has been well managed! Rest up now. See you again soon!

 

[Miss Muffet]

@uktanny - how lovely to hear from you and that you're comfortable.
We knew you'd be ok!
Get some rest and look forward now to healing and a much better future

Fantastic!

The nurse thinks I may have cellulitis! I'm so scared that this will destroy my new hip! I've got to wait until 9 for the doctors to look at it :-(

 

[uktanny]

The nurse thinks I've got cellulitis. Got to wait to see a doctor, but it's Saturday and I bet they won't see me for ages x

 

[Miss Muffet]

Hi Tanny - what happened? I mean how did this manifest itself? Am so sorry

 

[Jillie422]

Oh No Tanny! Praying for Good News to come your way!

 

[Jaycey]

Gosh @uktanny ! Please let us know how it goes with the doc!

 

[Jaycey]

Let's get @Josephine to comment on cellulitis just post THR. Hang in there!

 

[Sommers16]

@uktanny - I don't even know what that is, but we don't want it if it isn't promoting your healing and well-being. Praying for you for answers, for restoration, for peace.
