I can't really tell you about the operation itself. Fortunately I was asleep! I was brought round in the anesthetic room and was vaguely awake as they wheeled me back. I was pretty sleepy for most of the day and unable to eat very much.
The following morning I felt much better and able to eat breakfast. I was able to chat with some of the ladies who were left. I was offered crutches and the chance to go to the toilet on them. I felt normal.
I also learned to use Clexane as I was considered a risk for thrombosis. This is because my mother and my sister had both had one. Clexane is self-administered injections in the stomach. I had dreaded this, but found that doing it myself is possible, if a little scary the first time.
I stayed one more night then spent the next day determinedly getting ready to go home. It took a while, but I finally left at 7.30 pm and was glad to be back.
