Guest guest Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 Hi everyone.....well I had my surgery yesterday and thought I was prepared for it but the pain took over and I think I worried a lot about it and ran myself down a bit. the pain was horrible on the scale of one to ten I told them the pain level to be 6 it hurt like hell ....he patched my eardrum with some of the skin from behind my ear and cleaned off the Mastoid bone and scar tissue....my husband said he didn't mention anything about finding any cholesteatoma so at this point everything is very vague to me I guess I should have told my husband to ask more questions than he did......today my neck is swollen and shoulders hurt....there's burning in the ear and I'm getting ready to remove the pity bandage........will keep you all informed. My followup appointment is next Friday. Haven't thought about my hair yet... don't think I will attempt work on Monday or Tuesday but have not made that decision yet..this is the longest I've been out of bed....a couple of hours now. Will post more later. Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
