Picture is pretty nasty -- but in no way describes the pain I'm feeling. I can't put my head down - it feels like it's going to rip my skin apart...so I'm walking around like a dope looking at the sky. I know my neck is going to start bugging me....and sleep...well, sleep was terribly painful....wahhhhhhhhh...can this be normal? I was suppose to work today -- there simply is no way. The doctor's office opens at 9 -- I'm calling at 9:01am. I should have taken the pain perscription -- I didn't think it was going to be like this. I am going to see if they will give me a doctors note at least thru the weekend (I work Sunday as well).
Yesterday, went fine, though....longer than expected...one part didn't numb all the way -- but not enough to really complain -- so I just pretended I was getting a tattoo....which, speaking of, Dr. Dreamy decided that he had to cut a larger portion than he originally thought, so "to save the integrity of your tattoos" he went horizontal. (I told him to cut anyway he has to to get the shit out -- but he said this would work just fine)...Apparently, I have a bunch of stiches deep and then one "ongoing continuous -- kind of like a baseball stitch" on the surface. Then they put steri-strips on top of that. I'm not suppose to mess with it (but can shower) until I see him in TEN days -- on Tuesday. He said they should have the pathology reort then and we will just go from there. He left saying my tattoos were "still intact, just a little closer together" and got the name of my tattoo artist. :-)
Anyway...ouch.
