Hi, I'm worried about the possibility of having to have a section. I am allergic to opiates and all pain meds except paracetamol. I understand I'll probably have to go under general anaesthetic if have a section but I am worried about the recovery process with no pain relief.
Due to family history it's likely I will have a section and my sister who has a very high pain tolerance was in agony through her section recovery despite morphine and strong painkillers.
So i am pretty terrified.
Have any of you been through caesarean recovery with only paracetamol or no pain meds? I'd be grateful for some advice. Thanks!
