    Thank you cheer1eader, it was quite traumatic I must say :eek: but what's this, both your big toe nails to be removed? Why is that? Or shouldn't I ask, sorry, don't answer that one :o. I would imagine they will have dressings on them so you won't see a thing xx
    :rotfl: she said i have pincer nails on my big toes which mean they curl inwards at the sides and pinch my skin on my toe inwards & make my toes quite painful at times :( they do it under local anaesthetic so will be awake so no dressings will be on them while they are doing the op :eek: just hope there's a screen or something so i can't see :o
    :beer: Happy Bargain Hunting!! :beer:

    Hiya altojack :wave:

    You should know I have the patience of an :A after what mum puts me through :D

    I am only to happy to keep you posted :j

    By the way mums rang and she getting a taxi from hers at 8-15am in morning.
    I told her I was tired because I was worrying and didn't sleep because of what she said.
    No sorry but I shouldn't take what she says to heart stupid woman :( :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Definitely the patience of a saint X
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Good afternoon Elite :hello:

    Hope everyone has enjoyed the sunshine today :). I have to stay away from it as its too bright for my eye even with sunglasses :cool:

    Well, as I said to tweets yesterday, if this had been my first cataract to be done I wouldn't go back for the other one to be removed :eek:

    I arrived at the hospital just before 9am on Monday morning and eventually got called through. I had to have 3 lots of 3 drops put into my eye, same as before :). By the time I got taken into the operating room it was 11.15am, quite a delay for some reason but wasn't told what the hold up was.

    As I was reclined in my chair/bed thingy things got under way. The blue cloth was placed over my face then I could see the ceiling out of the hole that they would operate through :). I then felt such pressure on my eye ball and a two way conversation between who ever it was doing the op and someone standing at my left side. It was obvious to me by then that this wasn't my consultant doing the op but a trainee who kept saying "I don't think I should have done that" and "Have I cut that too far?"

    The conversation went on all through the op, I had to have more anisthetic in the eye as I was in pain :eek: I held my breath at one point and a voice asked me if I was alright? I felt like crying at that point but held it in.

    Now, if I had been approached and told there was a trainee around, did I mind if they did the op, I would have had the choice. I know these people have to have hands on experience, I'm all for it, but I just feel so aggrieved about the entire experience :(

    It made me in a bad mood when I was wheeled out, who should wander over to see how I was? My bil , who took us there and sat with dh whilst I was getting done :eek: where was dh? Sat in the bloody waiting area, I told bil to go back as I didn't think he was allowed through there with me and to tell dh not to bother coming through at all, to just go outside and I'd see him out there :eek: I was bloody livid. Stupid dh didn't realise I was being sarcastic, he didn't bother to come over to me because I'd said not to :mad: I wanted to cry still but couldn't as I was on my own :eek:

    Vision wise I've had problems, very blurred, I couldn't follow the thread as eye ached and stung immensely but it feels a little better today. Sorry about the use of large text the other night but I needed to see what I had written :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Sorry about the novel :eek:, I'm going to have a quick read of a couple of pages then rest my eyes as they are aching now.

    Thank you to for all the good wishes, they mean so much. tweets has kept me informed and I think I may have a text or two from her that I couldn't see to read :rotfl::rotfl:



    hope you back to normal soon.think you should have us on a rota reading the thread to you like talking book.:rotfl::D

    A lovely sunny day here and spending some quality time with ds2&3 in the park:cool: it's what life is all about enjoying the children as they are not young for long:j:j:j plus some nice mummy's about:)
  • Aj sorry to hear its been traumatic for you. Yes I'm always in the wide awake club between about 2-5
    Thanks for the good wishes about my dad. He has parkinsons and dementia and since the dementia has set in he cannot get his mobility sorted which has resulted in a few falls. They are keeping him in overnight which will give my mum a bit of a rest.
    They had a holiday near Kendal booked starting on Saturday. Being a true mse I have offered to go Saturday and Sunday night if she cant find someone else to use the week.

    Afternoon all,
    I am going to try to give up smoking, only smoke around 10 a day but that's 10 too many, lol. I want to buy an e cig, i've looked around but there are so many i don't know which one to buy.
    I've bookmarked the page for the onepoundliquids that Bubbs and a few others here have recommended but no idea which e cig to buy to go with the liquids.
    Can anyone recommend a good one please?

    Thanks

    I can recommend " Totally Wicked " website
    A bit more expensive but more robust than some.
    I am on my 6th year with them , I have no intention of stopping just saving money and my health.

    Those vaping things chuck out a load of vapour dont they...?
    we were out a couple of weekends ago and sat inside a grandstand and there were a group of about 4 directly under the window by us outside...if they all synchronised their inhale and exhale it looked like there was quite a plume of vapour coming from them
