If I'm honest Emma I haven't tried anything as I'm not that sort of person I didn't even use the pain killers they gave me after the operation as I have a high pain threshold and pills never work on me. But saying that I will and did take all the antibiotics they have given me.
At the moment I'm sat in my chair in the garden feeling very sorry for myself and sore as I have just changed the dressing and I'm now bleeding around the wound from lack of skin from peeling off blooming dressings that seem to stick like the preverbial to a blanket so any advice on how to stop that would be great.
On the real gory side when I changed it yesterday the fluid shot out just short of 2 metres and how do I know this---------I measured it as I was amazed.
