_Spin_ Donating Members 695 Member For: 17y 26d Posted 20/02/10 10:32 AM Share Posted 20/02/10 10:32 AM I had idea`s of drifting off. For one I`ve always been insomniac to the highest degree.There`s also reasons that made me think I`d drift off that don`t bare going into here.However, the doc put the shunt in my arm, showed me what he was going to use and the next thing I knew a nurse was asking me how I like my coffee an hour later.What I reckon, what I`m hoping, is that okay I`ve got sh!t going on day to day, pressure at work, sole parent etc and I stay on top of it just somehow. The crap they gave me has me running just below par and can`t see the forrest for the trees right now.Which is about as much of my soul I care to bare on a forum.Cheers to all for the positive comments and personal feedback.

The worst reaction I experienced was after a 5 hour op. I couldn't stop throwing up yellow bile. I remember coming in and out of consciousness on the way up from recovery. I chucked up in recovery, in the lift and back in my bed a few times. General anaesthetic is quite harsh on the body. I'm sure I've read that it can take months for the body to fully recover from it although I don't know how true that actually is.Glad to hear you're feeling better.
