Re: post op feelings (not DS) about pain

[Guest guest]

if your body learns the route to pain it is harder to control.

If you never let the pain develop really high you will have better all over

pain management.>>>>>>

good point, i.

When I had my gall bladder out I woke up in the elevator as they were taking

me to my room and the pain meds had worn off and I tell you.....it was the

most horrible pain I have ever endured! It took them a long time to control

it after that and then when they had me get up and walk to the bathroom I

thought they were trying to kill me! (you never heard me scream before

this!!)

Pain control is so very important for your recovery. I hope that never

happens to me again! (The epidural was a blessing with the DS after what I

went thru with the gall bladder removal!)
