    Hi,
    So i had my surgery on Thursday at 2pm. All went well apsrt from having a difficult recovery.
    I woke in excruciating pain. Initially they thought there might be something wrong with my heart. But they ruled that put with ECG, bloods and x ray. They gave me a kettermine bolus as till then morphine had not been helping.
    I take opiods anyway for chronic pain, so when the kettermine didn't work either they said they thought i had opiod-induced hyperalgesia. Where apparently i would be over sensitive to pain and also the pain killers would aldo be causing me more pain.
    I stayed on a kettermine infusion over the nect 24 hours. I was also put on a morphine pump, which gave me 1mg every 5 minutes. I also went into urine retention so had to have a catheter as i hadn't been for about 16 hours.

    Im starting to feel half human again now. My husband waited around for hours Thursday night but i didn't come out of recovery until 12am
