I Get Excited When it Comes to Surgey! (my first time) tehee

Assalamualaikum...

I am still in the hospital.. It has been 3 days already. Doctor Nahar said that i can go home by lunch time. yeah, alhamdulillah.

The operation went well although the doctor said that the chance of recurrent is almost 20%, just pray that it won't happen again. Life in the hospital as a sick person is so zzzZZZz boring. Almost 90% of your day is basically on bed. I can't move around a lot because my leg won't let me do so. hehe.

My morning start with nurses giving me an antibiotics shots through the cannula (its hurt..), getting my blood pressure, body temperature and heart rate checked, lite breakfast, and pain killer.

And 10 minutes later Dr.Kumar (the Anesthesiologist) having his ward round, to check if I have any difficulty dealing with anesthetics, well... nothing goes wrong.. i'm fine till now, i eat like a healthy person i must say.. no vomiting although i feel a little bit of nauseousness.

And later on my attending doctor Dr.Nahar (the Orthopedic Surgeon) came by to change the bandage. I got 5 stitches and its only the superficial one. There are lot more stitches deep inside. The incision is as deep through the tendon and it was just behind the Sural nerve.. Luckily enough the nerve survive from any compression by the ganglion, so no numb feet. :) alhamdulillah.

*i'm recalling back the medical notes.. Sural nerve is sensory nerve.. yeah yeah.. i know that!*

Well, this is the thing i like about being in the hospital. You can talk to the doctors more comfortably and gain new knowledge.. When i was first told about the ganglion cyst, i did a little bit of research. What the doctor said is 110% like what the Wikipedia told me! And I start thinking that maybe i should reconsider taking orthopedic as my specialist... hrmm.. (but majority of them are manipulated by men.. so hahaha) *speechless*

Well, do pray for my speedy recovery.. But from now i must limit myself from walking too much.. (how i love wandering around..)

till then.. wasalam :D

courtesy from google. this is not my feet. (aurat u olls) but the cyst look just like this.

I think this is how its looks like when the doctor perform the surgery, i was under anesthesia so i can't remember any of this! (sorry if this picture makes you feel nausea or having any undesirable symptom.. hehe)

*a little notes about ganglion cyst.. or you can google about it yourself. it's a knowledge that you might want to know, as it is one of the most common surgical procedure done by orthopedic department.*
