jonno 357 Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Got back late last night from BUPA after the operartion. Its now 4am and just had to take the 3rd lot of pain killers. I'm in ******* agony I had a large lump removed from under the tendon on a metatarsal bone. It was causing considerable pain before it was removed so hopefully this op should have down the trick Jonno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waddy Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Blimey - I'm surprised they let you out so soon. Keep taking the pain killers and stock up on Sporting Gun and Shooting Times while you have to rest How long are you out for ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonno 357 Posted October 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Operation in a BUPA Hospital. Ya get kicked out once the anesthetic has worn off. Hobbling about on crutches for a few days until I can put my full weight on the foot Jonno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Get well soon Jonno, hope the pain goes away soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Hopefully another 24 hours will make all the difference. Its easy to underestimate the trauma your body goes through in any surgical procedure. Rest and sleep if you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Master Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Hi, I had an op a few months ago and it had a few complications. Now is the time to make relatives feel sorry for you and send them out to buy Shooting Times, The Field, Airgun World etc I got this and an S410k so i'm not complaining despite my ear being in agony for a week after a myringoplasty?. :< Good luck recovering. I know how it feels. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axe Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Jonno, i've had more than my fair share of op's and the brain still aint working right Seriously though, after my bike accident I took Arnica 22. It was reccomended to me by a friend and it works very well. You should find it in a health food shop like Holland & Barratt. Trust me it works really well. Regards, Axe.

tenbears10 Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 18 months ago I had a cruciate reconstruction in my left knee. Woke up from the op and had to squeeze my leg to make sure it was still there. I had a morphine button to give pain relief. Home the next day and 10 days later I was off crutches and doing physio for 3 months. I does heal quickly. hope it feels better soon.
