Aargghh am in so much pain here. I have an appointment tomorrow with my surgeon and am so hoping that he takes a stitch out, as i know that one is definately loose as it is killing me! I know it has been like this for a few days now and i shouldn't have waited, but i have been so busy that i haven't had time to go in earlier. Also he really only does post op appointments on Friday and i don't want to be seen by anyone else.
Am hoping that i haven't made things worse here
Just for once i will be more than happy when he says i need one removed!
Am not happy though that the Friday i am going to see him happens to be Friday 13th!!!!!!

I'm sorry to hear that Sweet.
Hopefully tomorrow you'll have that troublesome stitch removed.
Just don't walk under any ladders on the way, keep away from black cats and whatever you do Don't go down into the basement.
Apart from that you should be fine, unless of course your surgeon is wearing a mask that isn't usual hospital wear.

Yes, very best of luck. Hope you're out of pain soon. Well done for being able to type too!
I really hope that it is something as simple as an errant stitch, and you get it removed without too much vision change.

Oh this is driving me insane now
Am really hurting and have found that it doesn't matter if my eye is open or closed as it hurts just the same.
Wanting to rub it but i know i can't, just really hurting and wish not that i had brought some local anaesthetic eyedrops home with me to ease it.

If it wasn't for the appointment tomorrow, I'd suggest a trip to A&E pronto if you're really in pain.
You could meet the nursing staff at Moorfields early

Hang in there Sweet. sorry to hear about your pain, but thinking of you. All the best with the doc.
Good thing you don't suffer from either paraskevidekatriaphobia or friggatriskaidekaphobia (both mean 'fear of Friday 13th')
