I had an operation on my foot 12 days ago.
I asked to go in to have my dressing changed today as it had got a bit uncomfortable, although was not due to go back until Tues to have dressing removed and stitches out.
Having the dressing removed was fine, although it was stuck to my foot and really disgusting with dried blood etc.
Anyway while the nurse was out of the room I looked at the wound - I knew I shouldn;t but I did and then I started feeling really sick and dizzy just at the site of it.
I am petrified I am going to faint when I go back on Tuesday...esp if it hurts..I can;t explain how queasy the whole thing made me feel.
Please tell me the worst..
