Chin up mate . will all be worth it in the end , I have had to return early from a pub crawl as could only hobble to first pub and can't drink due to meds .Even if I have the same experience as you, will be worth it to get my life back...Just think positive thoughts of being pain free

Hi Britchick,
I missed your posts, now you are over on the post surgery I found you! Yay glad you are out of surgery, hopefully by now you have had your blood transfusion I'm sure this will give you more energy. Plus hope they have figured out a good pain med routine for you that's so important right now!
Sending you lots of good thoughts, lots of love!
xxooxx

Britchick, I hope you're feeling better. Maybe you are sick from the anestehesia... that stuff really got me sick so they made sure to give me a spinal. Keep your spirits up... they'll get your meds fixed and working. Lots of love and prayers.

. So sorry to hear about the post-surgery pain. Hopefully they have sorted out the pain meds for you by now. Hang in there okay? It WILL get better.

So sorry that you are feeling not so good... It will pass...
I will tell you a funny story to try and make you laugh.. Cos Dingbats suggestion of a couple bottles of red made me remember... When I had my daughter here in OZ we lived in the outback, and by the outback I really mean back of no where... We only had a very basic country hospital and when they found I needed a blood transfusion they did not have any of my blood type on hand... So they advertised on the outdoor theatre screen... Long story short, a fella turned up, they hooked us both up to each other and pumped his blood into me!! Later that night they couldn't understand why I had a severe case of the giggles.. It turned out he had been drinking!!... I kid you not this is a true story. It was long before the procedures they have now around the collection and transfusing of blood.
Feel better soon, like Jo said nothing like a drop of the red stuff to put colour in your cheeks and get you laughing again
Lots of love, Sandy xx

Yep, it is tramadol ! Just taken my first steps, was ok once I got off the bed . I'm fully weight bearing on my leg and it didn't really hurt. Thanks to everyone for keeping my spirits up and not allowing me to lose hope x x x
