i back for short time i appreciate all outpouring of love and respect makes me feel good. the pain has not gone down much maybe a 8 out of 10 now nurse from dr office came over and adjusted cathedar and that made big difference. i hope mopnday when office opens i find new information. the hotel staff has one girl that speaks a little english and has helped me some. i am just so scared and alone on the other side of the world....
if anyone wants to talk or just let me whine to them please skype me at mandyh921 is skype username..
laptop is always on though i might not be sleep is the only cure for pain
Catheter, um ... I had this issue after my second op, I did mention it, didn't I?
Was shouting for Morphine when I came to – and then 2 more times... wow, yes it CAN get very sore, though my next door room neighbour having the exact same op... had NO PAIN whatsoever according to her telling. Go figure. Really.
It can be absolutely excruciating pain if the catheter was initially put in bit crude or whatever. It's the pain of being stocked up ones urethra and I know --- bad, bad, real bad. The good news... it will abide hon.
Then ALSO do NOT forget... Thai women (and men) as delicate as they may look, are TOUGH! They think westerners are often just too wimpy, so they get all worked up if we get all washed up with pain, and all what goes with it. Different culture, believe me.
Sex change is not for the faint hearted whatever some may think.
But women ARE tough - so are you, doll! It's kind of having a baby... like your FIRST one, eh?
I will get better by the day now.
Hug,
Axélle
