Went to my pre-admission appointment the other day, got blood tests done, weighed, got alot of paperwork filled in and spoke to doctors/nurses about the procedures i am getting done along with my laparoscopy. i might be staying in overnight afterwards depending on how the surgery goes, depending on how much pain im in after the surgery and what their opinion is on how it went.
In general im about to go through the 'dreaded week' and the pain levels have already increased to the point of needing strong pain relief.. I also feel a sense of needing to be away from people as im sore, moody, emotional, and having trouble understanding how i feel about things and how to react about things and just in general feel insecure somehow and don't know why.
The pain is only just bearable even with pain relief, i'm sick of waiting for the surgery date phone call/or letter, the nurses strike thing has messed up alot with surgeries being delayed, beds being closed/unavailable, and yeah not good, probably gonna be stuck waiting until january for surgery as it's already the very end of november and they dont do surgeries in december unless its a catagory one, meaning urgent, so im sure i will end up with the end of january to be scheduled.. sick of waiting and it wouldn't matter how often i went into the emergency dept in the hospital as they class my condition as catagory 2 meaning 1-3months usually 3 because of the long public waiting list. will update again next month most likely. and btw my b'day was good.

Really looking foward to my 23rd birthday this month :) Gonna be going to Phillip Island, Victoria for two days to have some fun.. Been sore everyday except had one pain-free day last week, was nice for to experience. I have a pre-admission appointment later this month as mentioned in my last post.. Hoping for a surgery date soon, i don't wanna be in this much pain, i already dislike taking strong medications..
