Indra, thanks for keeping us updated. I'm glad that the patches work - thought they would. ;)
I know it must be boring to lay in bed all day, but hopefully Lut can read some good books and watch a bit of TV.
Spoil her all you can and give her some extra hugs from us! She must be happy to have a daughter like you. :)
It's a relief to hear that Lut now has something to help with pain. I
hope & pray this continues to help until the Doctors can find a solution.
Gentle hugs. :)
Her leg is hurting because of the hernia: a nerve gets pinched all the time :eek:Quote:

Well...the moment after surgery, she will hopefully still be on major painkillers...I hope all goes well!
I pray that it is just a few days til your Mom is out of pain.
HUGS to you all. And I am sure the furry nurses are trained and ready! :)
Hi Lut! I really hope and pray that the pain meds are helping to ease your discomfort. I know it's easy for us to say but try not to be scared about the surgery or your recovery afterwards. Medical technology has come so far in recent years that what was once a major procedure is relatively common. Post-op treatment has also changed much for the better. About 5 years ago my Mom had surgery to remove a brain tumor that her neurosurgeon said was about the size of a tennis ball. When Soncat & I went to see her some 24 hours after surgery, Mom was sitting up in a chair waiting for lunch. Within 48 hours, the nurses were helping her walk around in the hall. Not to worry, Mom's surgery angels promised to be with you during your procedure. You remain in my thoughts and prayers.
After my surgery (acoustic neuroma), the first questions they asked were if I knew what year it was, where I was, who the president was ... so to that one, I replied "Do you want to know who the President is, or who I *wish* it was ..." and the nurse laughed and said "You're okay!"Quote:

UPDATE from MYSELF !!(= LUT) :eek:
It is now 2.45 pm GMT+1 hour (= 1 hour later than in London).
I am expecting my hubby home at 3.40 pm. We will be leaving for hospital right away then .
In fact I should be scared terribly; but not this time:
My painkillers, even the patches, are NOT helping me anymore :eek: . This is making life not worth living anymore for me... . Sounds hard, I know, but that is how bad I feel!! :(

I hope you get some relief. I have been missing your friendly and interesting posts here, as I'm sure everyone has. ((((hugs))))
Dear Lut,
I haven't been reading or posting very much on PT lately. I am so terribly sorry to read that your pain has gotten to such an unbearable level! :( I was relieved to hear that the morphine patches were helping, but then saddened again to read that even they had become ineffective. I pray that your surgery will be a great success and you will be home and PAIN FREE very soon!
Love and prayers,
Kim ;)
My prayers and thoughts are with you, Lut, today more than ever. I join with all of your other PT friends who can't wait until we hear the news that your surgery was an absolute success and you'll be ready to run the New York Marathon in no time. [[[[[HUGS]]]]] and all the best!
Love,
Momcat and Groucho
Gentle hugs and lots of prayers for you Lut. Feel better soon.
Betty
