Guest guest Posted January 9, 2003 Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 And no, no drugs. Just > steely will and a reliance on my own high pain threshold. No how. No way. I don't care what you use, but if you don't use something they wouldn't be touching me. Babies I can do. Anything else. No way. Not happening in this lifetime. You must have an incredibly high pain threshold and nerves of steel girl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2003 Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 Reminds me of what my dr said when I had our last child. The epidural didn't take and the dr made the comment " She's holding up well to the pain " . Excuse me? It didn't hurt all that bad, I just had this really horrid sharp pain that would show up on my right side everytime I would move just a little and that is what I wanted the epidural for, even after a while I got used to that pain (no one was able to figure out what it was) and it didn't bother me all that much. My dr thought I was nuts when I told him that labor contractions do not hurt. It is back labor that hurts like hell. Actually, I think my dr still thinks I am nuts.

Well, I have no way of comparing, but that's what nurses always tell me when I'm in hospital for something! When I broke my tibia & fibula both right in half (or is it tibula and fibia?) everyone who cared for me up until x-rays - including the EMTs, the doctor, and the nurses - thought I had a sprain because I was so calm. I dunno. <shrug> Jacquie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2003 Report Share Posted January 10, 2003 I'm just so grossed out. Went to the gyn this morning because I have an IUD that needs to come out. Problem is, the damn string they use to catch and remove the damn thing is MISSING. It's supposed to be out of the cervix, but mine isn't. The IUD is in perfect position, though, so I'm not in any danger of physical distress. So he did an internal, verified that yes, the string is missing, and told me there are two things to be done. The FINAL step is for me to go into hospital for day surgery, where they'll put me under general anesthetic, dilate the cervix, and remove the IUD. OK, that's find...BUT BEFORE WE DO THAT, I have to come in at the end of the month, *during my period*, when the cervix is slightly dilated and he may be able to fish around and find the fucking string and get it out in the office. That is GROSS!!!!! ICK! YUCK! BLEAGH! I ask you: what man in his right mind would become a gynocologist?????????? I am COMPLETELY sickened by this. It feels SO wrong. ICK. Jacquie -whose gyn has obsessive compulsive disorder (freely admitted) and spent the talking portion of the visit making sure his desk things were in their exact and proper places. And who is glad to know about OCD, and not take that personally. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 10, 2003 Report Share Posted January 10, 2003 >No, I would go to the hospital and have them knock me out. Thank you very much! The joy of socialized and under funded medicine. They'll do everything they can to keep you out of an expensive operating theatre. Ask me about my c-section sometime. It's a case in point.
