Hi all.
I’m 3 weeks post op since having my right external iliac node removed-well, not completely.. they got roughly 75% and will now be starting immunotherapy again.
I’ve got a good tolerance for pain but even I’m struggling.
I’m living off multiple painkillers. I usually end up overlapping them. If I don’t take them within the 4 hours, I get horrific shivers. Once I begin to warm up, I know they’re kicking in.
It feels as if I have a permanent stitch in my side. I still have a slight sting when I pee. I have almost constant sciatic type pain down my leg which is stopping me walking very far. I also get the sensation of an elastic band nipping every now and again. I’m obviously dehydrated although I’m trying to eat and drink-that also hurts and then trapped wind.
I can barely sleep unless I’m lay on my side..
My family are amazing.. I’m feeling so sorry for myself though, it’s ridiculous
