Yesterday just came back from surgery. When you experience FIRST in your life, there are so much things to learn, and that is just another blessing that is given. Thank God. I was in day care surgery, nowadays, nurses are very professional and considerate. Taking care of things that patient never thought about. Prepare locker to store belongings, extra receptives for contact lens, and even arrange places where anxious husband can wait for their injured but lovely wife :) They are very friendly. I also learnt about GA and LA - General Anesthetic or Local Anesthetic. But at the end doc had given me GA, it is a very fast process, the minute the jab was taken, I felt dizziness when being pushed into OT. A lot of people in OT, i can felt that everybody is doing something in some part of my body - very well organized. yet the last thing i know is that i was inhaling on oxigen mask, and my hand was spread out to the side.....After a while i thought i dreamt, and i felt difficulty in breathing, and i can open my eyes. A voice from the side saying, "it is well done, it is over" For a moment i thought i would died of suffocation because hard to breathe, bu later found out bandage of my hand and was placed nicely on my stomach - the surgery is over! My goodness! I felt just a moment in time only! I suffered heavy blow of headache when opened my eyes, heard my doc was talking and laughing with some other nurses, to clear my eye sight, i found myself already outside of OT. I am speechless, because everything was just too fast. I quickly recouped my memory, and found myself blank but only the last moment inside OT.
I thanked God because I managed to wake up, at least the anesthetic didn't lie to me.Haha...
Back to the day care area, suffered from nausea and really was seen pale on my face. Nurse asked me to take a nap. When I woke up found my belongings with me by the bed side - at least can check waht time is it now. It is already 446pm. Quickly wake up and there are things that i scheduled to do but not managed to get done now. Suddenly i noticed my 1st 3 fingers are blue black in color. Shocked, but noticed by a nurse. In a minute or two, the whole nurse team, about 7 of them are beside my bed discussing about my hand. The truth is the bandaged was too tight and causing the swollen and blue black in color. After consulting the doc, they rebandaged my wound. Good of them because they have this kind of knowledge. After 15 minutes, i said goodbye to the team and went back home with unmovable ring finger!
Thank God everything went so well!
