Done it!! No more gyne!

[Yorkshireman]

Hi all...

Got back today, and have spent the last 3 days getting my gyne done with Mr Levick.....it took 3 days as I bled quite a bit, and therfore had to stay for 2 extra nights...

I will post a blow by blow account, and rather than go over the points made in other diaries, I will try and focus on things that I feel havnt been touched on in detail...

So...the results....

Its 4 days post op, chest is TOTALLY FLAT! I'm confidently walking around in a T shirt already(with compression vest but you cant see it!)......chest is more or less numb, and I think there is some build uo of fluid in the right side, which will need a quick return visit to Mr Levick...

I feel pretty good with regards to aches and pain, although I am a bit cautious about exerting myself...

Like I say, Iw ill post in full later on, but for those reading who are in 2 minds, I can assure you that by my preliminary results it is well worth doing....so far I am well chuffed..hopefully all the bruising etc will go down in time, and it will look spot on!!

A massive thank you to all on this board!!

Nice one..good to hear from you from the other side

Not so good you had the complications though ...

hope everything works out well and settles down quick for you.

Did you get billed for the extra nights in the priory ? or is it inclusive, Mr levick just said "if everything is ok you go, if I'm not happy then you stay"

hope you have a Speedy recovery

A couple of nurses told me that there was no charge if the doc felt is was necessary for medical reasons, which it was.....I assume that there is no charge,.....none was mentioned.....if they do charge me...i shall faint! I struggled to afford the op....
