apologies for this as I know you are getting bored with this, but I am fretting AGAIN about my leg and waiting for the doc to ring....

[psychomum5]

.....can you have a look and tell me how to tell him over the phone about the changes please.

TIA

I did not! I would never tell you to lay off the wine for a less than water-tight reason!

bastard arsewipe DH.........grrr

the doc hasn;t rung

I am cross

I am ranting

DH comes upstairs

he is on the phone

he won;t get off the damn thing

he says why

I state leg issue

he says..."what is the problem, you have another leg"

and I cannot cut him off, I can;t run, and he has a weapon.....his finger, poking my leg.

Ah but surely wine is known for it's medicinal qualities and is well renowned for it's post surgery healing properties.

disclaimer I have no idea what I'm talking about............

is it known for 'saving husbands from torture' properties too

Can you set one of the children on him? .

Must go feed the monsters..school show tonight!

One of the children? No, set all of them on him! They are many, he is but one man....

doc has rung

he thinks it is down to reaction from the plaster rather than infection from the wound, as it is dry and not moist or weepy and the redness is confined within the plaster shape and no spreading outwards.

of course, any worries, go in tomorrow and he will look at it for me.

Did you say 'I can't come in and have you look at it, I only have one leg!'?

I should have said that, but seeing as he is my doc, I am a little worried he might then label me as completely insane when I turn up with leg still attached..........even if it is only by a teeny tiny slither of skin!

don't know about the leg, but your bathroom is nice

psycho - my dh is allergic to plasters and gets a reaction similar to yours.

I hope it gets better soon. Would a G&T help?

wine would help more I think

I love my bathroom

hi I had a melanoma removed from my face so have experience of...
the bruising - normal would expect this
the redness and irritation - i had this and it was caused by the internal stitches working their way out. Alternatively it could well be a dressing reaction. For mine I put gauze over then secured this with micropore and this did the job nicely.
The bathroom - you have the same suite/cabinets as me!!!

careergirl, thankyou for the info. that helps a lot

and on the bathroom! what good taste we have.

ok, am feeling worse, and have just started being sick.

this is not fair.

yes but its a bug and not connected with your amputation at all.

oooh your bathroom is pretty

pyscho
you poor thing

poorly psycho thanks MoM for the pretty compliment, also thans for the not connecting to the amputation

you can hug me

is your dh being kind to you?

he is now.

well, he was already, but getting bored with it.

he then said me feeling odd was down to not eating.......he made me a bacon sandwich, it sat for a while, I tried to MN to distract myself, then ran to the bathroom (now hurt), and it all came out.

dodgy other end too, but I have my period as well (tis all happeing this week), so figured it was that as I normally do (TMI but I have a retroverted uterus and it irritates my bowel and causes issues).

this really is not fair. I just wanna be me again!!

oh you poor thing

actually

Oh yuuuuuck!

Was the sympathetic enough

But seriously, have wine, beat husband with crutch, wallow in self-pity. Tis best.
