Feeling faint....
Cathy took me to Morriston yesterday...for my "finger" appointment.I was desperate to have the big plaster/bandage removed, as it was starting to get me down. The nurse took it off...and said "are you ready ..it might not look very nice". When she said the words.."dried blood" I felt really hot and faint!!!! I tried not to be sick,as she took the stitches out.!!!
It was really strange seeing my hand again...it looked really small. My wound is bigger than the original cut...and not very pretty. I have to rub E45 cream into it 3 times a day if possible...and start to do some hand exercises. At the moment it feels really strange...like I have a plastic finger that doesnt belong to me.
In a way, I wish that I could have my big cast back to protect my finger...now its out there in the fresh air...and I could easily knock it or bang it against something. I ll just have to be carefull.
