Has anyone had one of these injections? Are they painful? Any side affects? Having mine tomorrow and getting twitchy Mabel
Hi. Im Glad it was ok. I’m not sure what operation you’re having but I had a lumpectomy 3 weeks ago and some lymph nodes removed. I was so nervous and it ended up being a long day but the staff are so brilliant and it was all fine. I was worried about having the anaesthetic but the staff are so clever in how they work and they distracted me to the point - it just happened ! Take something to occupy yourself- I did my online food shop, took a book and a puzzle book too! I wish you the best of luck. It’s also the best feeling after that it’s another step completed.
