Hi,
I had an appointment yesterday with my surgeon. I had made the appt so I could ask all the questions I needed to ask but when I got there I he wsn't there so I saw his registrar, I hadn't met him before and although he was quite nice he had none of the 'bed-side-manner' of my Surgeon.
Anyway he has kind of upset me b/c one of the first thigs he said was 'You do realise that there is no guarantee that we will actually make your pain better, don't you? In fact there is a chance we could make it worse'
Now I know they have to say that to cover their backs but really it was the last thing I needed to hear.
I am already having doubts about my surgery, and now they are starting to increase, I also found out i have to wear a brace for 6 m after my surgery, the same as the first time round, which stinks, I never thought I would have to go thrugh that again
I had been looking forward to seeing my Surgeon yesterday he is such a nice guy and really funny, and now this morning I just feel like a huge black cloud has settled over me.
Sorry for being so negative but I need to get this out to people who might understand.
