The local anaesthetic started to wear off about 4.30pm yesterday so I took some painkillers once I felt that tingling feeling in my fingers. It
seriously started wearing off around 8pm and oh wow was it painful. I've been in agony every since, despite taking strong painkillers. As well as pain, when the local s wearing off, I
could feel a very strange bubbling sensation in the palm of my hand. I also keep forgetting and keep moving my hand. My right hand is my dominant hand so it's just out of habit.
My friend, S, came to pick me up from the hospital. I couldn't thank her enough. She's also said if I need anything just to let her know. How lovely is that? We're going to do lunch again once I get my stitches out.
So I woke up about 20 minutes ago in pain so thought I'd do a little bit of left handed updating. There is loads I want to write but for now I'm going try getting back to sleep. (It's 3.08am!)
He has about 40 CV's for today. So hopefully has a bit of of luck.
ReplyDeleteIf the pain keeps up maybe wear sling for longer because its your dominant hand your gonna move it more than what you would your left hand.
I hope you managed to get some sleep. X x
