writing share tag!

Oh shit, @cowboybrunch left an open tag on that beautiful excerpt of babygirl Theo being an asshole. And I'm whittling away at this short story.

Yesterday I posted the first 3.1k words of "Among the Elements," which I am revising.

Today I'm offering up 1,930 words and content warnings for DIY surgery, first-person past-tense body horror, and general Mad Science in the name of self-impregnation. It's explicit. IDK how else to tag this. Be careful.

Week 12 Wednesday Most obvious answer has been in front of me the entire time. , Or, rather, adjacent to the experiment itself--it is within my own corpus.

Incubator biosynthetic for sake of fetus's health and safety--never designed with goal of implanation--odds of rejection significant--lower than odds of discovery if left exposed.

Will need to procure robotic assistance. Unable to perform procedure alone. Will require magnetic nerve block, suction, traction, cauterization, waste management if the procedure is successful…

Uncertain as to best incision site. If transverse, reduced risk of hernia and shorter recovery time--limited exposure to surgical site, challenging closure, risk of nerve damage.

Longitudinal…

Had I known I would be installing through a longitudinal incision I may have made different methodological decisions. Earlier installation for one. Will have to manually extract incubator at conclusion of gestation.

Worry about that later.

Completed risk assessment.

Incubator 49.5cm in length. Able to accommodate utilizing space in abdominal cavity.

Circumference presents concern. Material somewhat inflexible. Will have to rearrange cavity interior. Possible organ removal necessary.

Must be longitudinal incision. Large scar, slower recovery; fewer surgical complications due to open site, will be able to visualize organ migration.

Nothing more to consider. Prepping now. Will update after.

Thursday Glad I'm not two centimeters shorter.

Anti-rejectants performing admirably. No redness at site of incision. Pain persistent but tolerable--pharmaceutical intervention will cause unwanted mutations at this stage of gestation even if our systems are not enmeshed.

Acclimating to persistent feeling of fullness and the effect it is having on the gastrointestinal and urogenital systems. Unable to rest supinated--incubator weight occludes the inferior vena cava. Pressure on diaphragm also an unforeseen concern. Several pre-surgical consideration for future application of this prototype.

Awakened with realization that THIS IS A PROTOTYPE.

If this doesn't kill either myself or the fetus the implication of successful implantation is phenomenal.

Of course the probability of our both expiring is significant. Compared to this afternoon the fetus's vitals are stable and strong while father vitals are stable and show hypotension and hypoxemia. Lower limb elevation with compression and oxygen adjunct resolved.

I must proceed with caution.

Friday Limited space in hollow organs.

Have learned to vomit without use of abdominal muscles.

Longitudinal incision a terrible idea. That robot was a terrible idea. This was all a terrible idea. I am the king of terrible ideas.

Terrible Idea That Wasn't Terrible After All #18: program robot to feed cat in morning. Stay in bed.

She did join me, which was unforeseen. Cleaned her face for roughly an hour and then--purring--laid on my side. Desires the heat of the incubator, doubtless. Considered kicking her out of bed but felt unwell. Feel less unwell, now.

Saturday Fetal heartrate elevated today.

Corpus temperature 38.1C.

This may be how I die. I'd always hoped it would be an explosion that did it. Or an electrical mishap.

Adjusting anti-rejectant dosage.

Sunday Fetal heartrate returned to 110bpm. Corpus temperature reduced to 37.8C. All other systems nominal.

Would say it is easier to breathe but that would be both a colloquialism and a lie. Am however much improved compared to yesterday. Damned cat purred and refused to leave my side until I was able to remove her myself. Robot shuttled broth from the nutrient synthesizer to the bed--I've not taken in nutrients since Wednesday evening.

Thus far the onboard biometrics have reported no issues with the fetus's metabolism or gestation. Incubator nutrient system is unaffected by change in environmental conditions.

Too soon to celebrate.

Monday Cat insists on running in front of me as I'm walking.

Blood loss within acceptable limits--stitches holding--some internal shifting that resolved with external binding. Incubator switching from internal nutrition and filtration to transplacental--connecting its vascular system to mine--a strange sensation I'm unable to put into words, knowing how like and unalike a plumbing system, it can be.

Thinking of my body as a house. Must still be delirious. Back to bed.

Week 13 Wednesday Condition improving--post-operative pain and swelling have subsided significantly--am able to walk from one side of the apartment to the other and have attempted stairs--the incubator appears settled in the abdominal cavity.

One benefit of this arrangement is the incubator will not grow. It is sized for a 12-week-old infant. If I am careful I believe I will be able to keep the incubator hidden for the duration--either in my person, which is less than ideal, or upon returning to a secure laboratory where I can work uninterrupted to perform an extraction. Until such time, I suppose the fetus--

Continuing to refer to the experiment as "the fetus" is unideal. Will have to decide upon a more appropriate name.

Week 18 Friday Initial consideration of healing factor accelerant not entirely baseless--however, I've decided to allow the installation site to close on its own without interfering with placental growth factor. Elastic bandage ensured the incubator did not exert excess pressure on--quite a bit of in and ex in those two sentences for there being not a lot of either, until this stage of the experiment.

Five weeks to complete closure--I should say that's nominal healing, under the circumstances. My own biology may be resistant to the experiment but it continues to perform its essential functions. Equilibrium is returning.

Final and admittedly unthought-through stage of phase I complete.

The experiment is safe.

Week 19 Monday The temptation--the need, I would say, if I were inclined to enter hyperbole into scientific record at some point in the future. I don't need. I want to run scans on this experiment, and the frequency of that want is… overwhelming. Until this point, it would have been too early to scan. Yet that want reared its head near every week for the past month.

Today I was able to measure the fetus's development, and observed continued healthy growth and functionality. Fetus is in the 25th percentile for height and weight with no abnormalities. All vital organs and systems functioning within normal parameters. The incubator is effectively supporting fetal growth and well-being.

While the incubator itself is completely self-contained and able to produce its own hormones, mine has now joined the lymphatic and vascular systems in reducing the incubator's energy consumption.

Am uncertain what to make of this, and look forward to postpartum dissection of the incubator to determine what caused spontaneous integration.

[See supplemental data log for biometric data for week 19 fetal growth.]

The biometric scanner is capable of producing imagery of the fetus based on soundwaves.

I saw them. I saw them tonight. They're alive.

For the sake of transparency--yes. I was overcome with emotion. It would appear as though the incubator's presence within my abdominal cavity is also exerting bottom-up control over the corpus's endocrine system. I am drawn to think of abstract concepts such as embodiment and caregiving. Of how my corpus had not changed in the milliseconds before the biometric scanner produced an image of the experiment's face, but the experiment became the baby upon subjection to the observer effect. Whether that meant I, by extension, was changed. Whether I had inherited personhood with the death of my ignorance.

I was overcome. I now know everything there is to know about the baby.

I saw my child tonight.

Week 21 Monday The temptation to perform a scan more frequently than every four weeks is maddening. I have the incubator set to alert me if anything changes--not even to suboptimal levels; any change at all--I know when the heartbeat increases, when not enough nutrients are moving through the exchange--when the baby puts their thumb in their mouth.

The only metric I have not gathered concerns their sex. All I know is they are healthy, and I have to be patient.

That sad, I am finding it increasingly difficult to focus on other projects with earlier deadlines. This requires patience, and I keep daydreaming. Knowing months are left between myself and the conclusion of this experiment--for which I was unable to gather consent from the most important participant! Not quite six months, and the difference in how I think of this baby today compared to a series of CRISPR instructions… it may be the literal internalization of my role in the infant's development, or knowing that soon they could survive outside the incubator--so much time has passed, and yet it is not near soon enough to extract the unit.

Nothing to do between here and then but gather data--and, I suppose, as the child has ears, to read to them. Or sing.

Unable to recall if my parents sang to me, when I was only a possibility. Before they sent me away. I was an agreeable child, is my recollection. The Society came for me, and appealed to my parents. They could not give me the sort of education the Society was offering to pay for, and my parents wanted to give me everything. They did not want me to have to work the way they worked.

I wish I would have argued with them. It would have made no difference. But I wish I had told them I didn't want to go.

This child deserves a promise--not to be sent away, and not to be made to be agreeable, if we are not in agreement.

Now I understand why strangers ask if other strangers want to see pictures of their babies, the new ones, all the way up to teenagerhood. I want to show everyone I pass on the street that printout of the impression of this child, the unformed features of their face, and I want to tell them, I made this. This is the only important thing I'll ever do in my life.

Week 23 Neighborhood hot when I returned from the metro. Counted no fewer than four MIB per square kilometer. Uncertain whether they're looking for me--no reason why they ought to be. Simplest and most obvious answer is someone else in the area is drawing attention to themselves. See prev entry re: Omens. Foolish to think ignoring the presence of Technocrats reduces their interest in me, should their interest be above zero. Will proceed with caution.

Week 24 Weight increased substantially, though the incubator has not changed in size. Baby has been gaining 29 grams per week, and the placenta is keeping pace with their development. Anticipate accelerated growth as the trimester continues.

Plenty to discuss, and nothing at all of note. My impatience rears when I acknowledge it; and, in acknowledging it, I have to wonder if impatience doesn't serve as this child's mother, rather than Scientific inquiry.

Week 25 I'm certain other events occurred yesterday that are worth noting. Every other day I make a new discovery, or experience a breakthrough. Were I not frightened of it being entered into evidence, I would record much more of the child's development than I have been.

I am afraid--paranoid, even--and yet.

Every ounce of fear I've felt thus far was erased by a sensation I'd never felt before--never would have felt before--replaced by what can only be described as enlightenment.

I felt like a mortal man stealing fire from the divine. One who went up the mountain sightless and returned with fire. I was, for a moment, a god.

And in that moment I was aware of the presence of life growing within my own, housed within a structure that defies reason or sanity, and I was aware because I felt. I ought not to have been able to feel--I never programmed the biopolymers to transmit information--yet they have.

This is not referred mechanoreception.

I can feel my child move.

Day two post op (Top Surgery Update, SURGICAL TALK AND RECOVERY WARNING): I have a minor hematoma on my left side. The swelling started yesterday, and this morning it was real bruised. My incision is weepy and the fluid in my drains seems to be normal and pretty consistent. It’s darker than my other side, but my surgeon doesn’t seem concerned. I’ll likely have to keep the left drain in for a bit longer than my right. We’re pretty sure it’s going to go away on its own, because the swelling went down a bit overnight, and should only be a minor hiccup!

As for pain, the explanation of “feeling like I got punched really hard in each peck” is still pretty accurate! Most of the discomfort is from the swelling itself, and is more of a dull soreness. Gauze got successfully changed without any lightheadedness, which is an improvement over yesterday!! I learned the hard way that electrolytes and eating before taking the binder off for any maintenance is CRUCIAL. I also learned my pain tolerance is pretty high, and I’m managing pretty well on just OTC meds without having to take the opiates. Still super weak, but it’s early on and I’m seeing small improvements already. Mostly just trying to keep myself from feeling COMPLETELY helpless, doing the little tasks on my own where I can, but still very very heavily reliant on the help of my family.

Last week, I managed to throw myself into extreme low blood sugar and blood pressure, causing myself to pass out twice Tuesday morning. In the process, I managed to give myself a High Angle Sprain. To say I'm in pain is an understatement. It will be 4-6 weeks of recovery, plus physical therapy because it was my bad ankle, the one with surgical metal and I did it when I passed out the first time so we don't really know the mechanics of the actual injury. So, please know I'm here, but slow and my offline friends have decided that I need put in a hamster ball to be kept safe from myself. I also have to wear my Doc Martens to keep my ankle supported just about 24/7. I guess I'm lucky I had just received a new pair that are stiff as hell. It was that or an air cast. Whee?

Posting of stories will resume shortly.... @saltysupercomputer @watermeezer @pheita @writingmaidenwarrior

my top surgery recovery tips

alrighty gang! im one week post op and i have tips for anyone who might need them in the future. this is likely prone to be updated/reblogged with more tips in the future once i'm further in recovery.

keep in mind that even a day after surgery i was pretty mobile and was able to do most things by myself, so these tips may not be as helpful for older trans people who would be slower to bounce back, people who are chronically ill or disabled and already have trouble with movement or surgical recovery, or just other people who don't recover as quickly. different bodies will react differently to surgery.

i also have surgical drains, which not all surgeons will provide (but my surgeon gives them to all top surgery patients). they will have quite a few tips of their own because they're annoying to manage.

and lastly, i had double incision top surgery, but i didn't get nipple grafts. if you do have nipple grafts, you have to wait 2 weeks to shower instead of just 2 days, since the grafts can't get wet.

get lots of zip ups, button ups, and oversized shirts or tank tops.

for the first few days, you won't be able to reach your arms high enough to put a shirt on; at least, not without help, and it's very annoying to do. the best option is to get button-ups or zip-ups with wide shoulders that are easy to pull on. bathrobes are really nice too.

if the hospital doesn't provide you with gauze, it's good to buy some (and some waterproof medical tape to keep it there).

while i didn't need gauze after a few days to cover up the scars because they had glue protecting them, one of my drain sides leaked quite a bit, and it got super itchy if it wasn't cleaned up right away. if there was gauze soaking up the leaks before it got too far, it really cut down the itchiness, and made for less mess i had to clean up (which is its own annoying and uncomfortable process)

make sure you have sweatpants or baggy/comfortable pants on hand; stuff that you don't need a belt to wear.

putting on pants is a pain in the ass, so you won't want to have to change them constantly. it's good to have comfortable pants you can wear for a while without wanting or needing to change them. i have a lot of pajama pants and they have been my best friend.

put anything you need to access daily on a lower shelf.

most of my bathroom stuff is in a 3 shelf mirror cabinet, and while everything i needed was on either the first or second shelf, the second shelf was still annoying, painful, and difficult to reach. putting everything on an easily accessible shelf level or setting them lower (though not on the floor because bending down to pick stuff up is also annoying) is way easier.

baby wipes. so many baby wipes.

generally speaking, your skin will be sore but you won't feel it when you touch it because of nerve damage that just comes with surgery. but it's still really sensitive in areas that weren't operated on, so cleaning up any mess with baby wipes (especially if you got grafts and can't shower) which are soft on your skin but good at removing residue or anything sticky is very useful. they've saved me so many times when i had drainage leaks.

cough drops.

after surgery, you're likely going to have a sore throat because of anesthesia. it's good to have some cough drops or tea on hand to soothe it.

make a mini beside table (BEFORE SURGERY!) with any nighttime items or pain medication.

i had a little nighttime stand with snacks, my pain medication, water, my tablet and phone, and a charger. this made it very easy to get anything i needed without potentially having to get up and walk into another room to get whatever i needed instead.

make sure you're with a friend or relative who you're comfortable with seeing you exposed and who's able to take time off to help you with anything.

even with my mobility, there was still a good handful of things i couldn't do by myself that i needed help with. i often needed help getting dressed, i can't do dishes, i can't cook for myself, and early on, i was often so sore that i needed help getting out of bed. having someone you trust to help you do any of this is essential, but that's true for almost any surgery.

get a belt that can get wet.

if you have drains, but no grafts, and you want to shower, you're going to want a belt to attach your drains to while you shower. having them hang free is very anxiety-inducing (at least, for me), so you might not be able to clean up as well with a belt on, and it might feel really uncomfortable, but it's better than having them swing free and potentially get pulled out too early.

stay safe everyone, and happy recovery for everyone getting top surgery!

edit: if anyone who's also had top would like to reblog with their own tips, i'll be sure to reblog them!

Just Like Mom Said

Author: DatHeetJoella Fandom: Free! Pairing: MakoHaru Rating: G Prompt: MakoHaru week 2024 day 4: recovery Word count: 6,486 Summary: When Nanase-san comes to Makoto with a dislocated shoulder, she says he'd be a perfect match for her son. Months later, when Makoto finally meets said son, he gets an inkling she might be right.

----------------------------

For as long as he could remember, Makoto had wanted to help people. As a child, he’d be the first to jump up to assist his mother with his newborn siblings or to run to the freezer for a pack of ice when his dad hammered his thumb trying to put their cribs together. He always dreamt of being a doctor; what better way to help people than to treat their illnesses and make their pain go away? But when he got older and found he couldn’t stomach the sight of blood, needles freaked him out, and he didn’t dare look at open wounds, he realised that that career path wasn’t in the cards for him.

When sharing these concerns with his school counsellor, she pointed him towards an option that ensured his dreams were still viable, but without all the scary parts: being a physical therapist. Then, people would come to him with injuries or chronic pain and he would help them recover, or at least, give them the tools they needed to make their conditions more manageable in their daily lives. No blood, needles, or open wounds, but joints and muscles that were all safely tucked away inside the patient’s skin; there would be post-surgical scars, but that was nothing Makoto couldn’t handle.

From then on, being a physical therapist was the goal he’d set his sights on, the one he’d been working towards for the past decade.

Patient journey and staff roles

Masterpost

So you survived part one. Genuinely didn't mean for it to get that long and hopefully this will be shorter. This is definitely going to vary between countries but mostly with what people are called (I think)

The Journey

For elective surgery, you'll know about it beforehand and will probably have to wait a few hours in hospital before actually going for surgery

No eating and drinking for a few hours beforehand (usually no food for minimum 6 hours, no water for at least 3). This is so that you don't bring up any fluid or food from your stomach, which could go into your lungs (aspiration)

When it's time for surgery you'll go to the anaesthetic room, where you'll meet the anaesthetist (sleepy doctor) and an anaesthetic practitioner (a nurse or ODP who helps out).

They'll check your name, age, the operation and where it's happening. You'll get monitoring, a cannula, and then they'll stick a mask on your face. This is usually just oxygen. Next a drug through the cannula and you'll go to sleep

Once you're asleep you go into the operating theatre and get transferred to the operating table. When the operation finishes you get taken off the table and wheeled round to a recovery bay

There you wake up and be monitored for a while (usually 30 mins to an hour) before you'll get given back to the ward and can finally eat something. When you've eaten, drank, and done a piss you can go home

The people

There's usually between 5 and ten people

Anaesthetist - they put you to sleep, keep you asleep, and make sure you don't move or die during surgery. Surgeons would prefer you don't move.

Surgeon - the star of the show (they think). You'll have met them before to discuss it and they're in charge of the operation holding the knife

Surgical assistant - this could be a registrar/trainee surgeon or someone who's qualified in just this. They are often left to stitch you up while the surgeon leaves to get more coffee and write up notes

Anaesthetic assistant/practitioner - a nurse or ODP who helps the anaesthetist. They set up the anaesthetic room and anaesthetist couldn't manage without them

Surgical/scrub nurse/odp - if they're sterile: they pass things to the surgeon and are good at counting (more on this later). If they're not sterile they tidy up and pass things to the sterile nurse. Both set up and clean the room

Healthcare/theatre assistants - not nurses so can't be sterile, they check in patients and bring them to theatre, as well as help the nurses/odp

Recovery practitioner - they look after you when you first wake up from surgery and do a lot of paperwork. Ask them for pain medication

On second thoughts maybe I should have split this into 2 posts but you've read it now so who cares (not me)

Tips for Quick Recovery After Surgery: Advice from Pristyn Care’s Health Experts

By optimizing and improving the patient experience before, during, and following surgery, Pristyn Care is leading the charge to transform surgical care in India. Pristyn Care is a full-stack healthcare solutions provider that is committed to making every patient's experience as easy and stress-free as possible. Their team of specialists is dedicated to providing complete support, from the first consultation to the recuperation phase following surgery. Pristyn healthcare highlights the need to follow competent medical advice since it understands the critical role that planning and knowledgeable direction play in the success of rehabilitation. This method makes surgery both effective and safe by protecting patients from potential complications and expediting the healing process.

Section 1: Preparing for Surgery

A successful surgical procedure can be a life-changing experience, so being well-prepared is essential. Preoperative consultations are extremely important to Pristyn Care because they lay the groundwork for establishing precise expectations and getting patients ready for surgery. These sessions guarantee that patients comprehend the recuperation process, are well-informed about the procedure, and are psychologically prepared for the necessary actions.

Individuals must inform their healthcare professionals honestly about any current medications or pre-existing medical issues during these conversations. The experts at Pristyn Care carefully examine each patient's medical history to customize the surgical plan to meet their unique requirements, thereby lowering the likelihood of complications following surgery. This individualized approach aids in the creation of a unique recovery plan in addition to optimizing the surgical technique. Through proactive management of these factors, Pristyn Care guarantees that every patient is surgically ready, improving operation safety and efficacy while reducing the risk of unanticipated consequences.

Section 2: Understanding Your Surgery

A healthy recovery depends on you being aware of the details of your surgical treatment. Pristyn Care makes certain that every patient is given a thorough explanation of the surgery, including the methods that will be employed, the anticipated length of the treatment, and the recuperation period. Patients' nervousness before surgery is reduced by this transparency, which aids in their physical and emotional preparation. Pristyn Care reviews frequently emphasize how this thorough explanation demystifies the procedure gives patients a sense of control and reduces their anxiety about the impending surgery.

Gaining knowledge about the surgery process also facilitates healing. Patients can actively engage in their recovery by following post-operative instructions more thoroughly and managing their expectations regarding recovery durations and potential pain management better when they are aware of what to expect at every stage of the process. Positive comments and evaluations endorsing Pristyn Care's extensive educational initiatives attest to the fact that this well-informed approach facilitates quicker recovery and adds to overall patient happiness.

Section 3: Day of Surgery Tips

Without enough planning, the day before surgery can be stressful. Patients are given a list of necessary goods by Pristyn Care to make sure they are comfortable and prepared. This contains essential paperwork like identification, health records, and insurance documents in addition to personal belongings like toiletries, a change of clothes, and a favorite book or entertainment gadget that can make the stay easier. On the day of surgery, these simple preparations can greatly improve comfort and lower stress levels.

Furthermore, following dietary recommendations before surgery is essential for a safe treatment. Before surgery, Pristyn Care provides patients with advice on fasting or particular dietary requirements that must be met. This frequently entails giving up food and liquids for a predetermined amount of time before the procedure to avoid issues like aspiration while under anesthesia. Patient reviews frequently comment on how useful and clear these dietary instructions were, and how they prevented any issues before surgery. Adhering to these guidelines not only guarantees safety throughout the procedure but also facilitates a more seamless and trouble-free recuperation, thereby strengthening Pristyn Care's dedication to both patient care and safety.

Section 4: At-Home Post-Surgery Care

Optimal healing following surgery depends on how well you handle your at-home recuperation. Comprehensive post-surgery care guidelines, particularly about wound treatment, are provided by Pristyn Care. Patients receive instructions on wound care, including methods for cleaning and treating wounds that reduce the chance of infection. It's critical to recognize infection symptoms, which include increased redness, swelling, warmth, and discharge. To guarantee prompt medical attention if certain symptoms arise, patients are informed about them.

Following the suggested prescription schedule is equally crucial. Pristyn Care stresses how important it is to take all prescriptions exactly as prescribed, especially antibiotics and analgesics. Effective pain management after surgery promotes comfort and movement, both of which are critical for healing. Pristyn Healthcare's care instructions are highly praised in reviews because they provide a thorough explanation of each drug's purpose and clarify each stage of the treatment regimen, improving patient compliance and recovery outcomes.

Section 5: Rehabilitation and Physical Activity

Rehab and physical activity are essential components of post-operative recovery. Personalized rehabilitation plans are created by Pristyn Care, outlining the kinds of activities that are helpful and those that should be avoided during the early stages of recovery. Light exercise, such as walking or mild stretching, is usually recommended for patients as it improves blood circulation and helps avoid problems like blood clots.

To promote flexibility, strengthen the muscles surrounding the surgical site, and ease the return to regular activities, physical therapy is frequently advised. Working with physiotherapists who specialize in post-surgical recovery is part of Pristyn Care's approach to making sure that exercises are properly completed and customized to each patient's needs and progress. The quality of life after surgery is improved and recovery times are greatly shortened when skilled physical therapists are involved. Positive evaluations frequently emphasize how adhering to Pristyn Care's structured physical activity standards has resulted in fewer issues and faster recovery times, demonstrating the efficacy of their rehabilitation plans.

Section 6: Nutrition and Hydration

Adequate nutrition and hydration are essential for successful postoperative recovery. According to Pristyn Care, a balanced diet full of proteins, vitamins, and minerals is crucial for the immune system and tissue regeneration. Pristyn Care reviews recommend that patients eat meals high in protein, such as lean meats, fish, eggs, dairy, nuts, and legumes, along with fruits and vegetables that supply essential vitamins and antioxidants. Drinking lots of water to stay hydrated promotes nutrient distribution and cellular health, both of which contribute to the healing process.

Additionally, Pristyn Healthcare reviews advise staying away from processed foods, high-fat goods, and excessive carbohydrates as these might irritate tissues and impede healing. Pristyn Healthcare reviews often highlight these useful dietary recommendations, which greatly shorten healing times and increase safety. Following these guidelines, as noted in Pristyn Care reviews, ensures a more effective and safer recovery.

In summary

You'll recover from surgery more quickly and safely if you heed the professional counsel of Pristyn Care. Please contact Pristyn Healthcare if you have any questions or concerns about any issues that may arise after surgery. At every step of the journey, their committed team will offer assistance and direction. Pristyn Care reviews and Pristyn Healthcare reviews consistently highlight the exceptional support and guidance provided throughout the recovery process.

so i've dealt with a significant amount of pain.

periods meant i was throwing up, calling out of school/work two days a month minimum, cramps going up my back and down my legs. i would take 800 mg of ibuprofen every 4 hours before i realized how bad of an idea that was for several days.

i'm also hypermobile. to the point that i have dislocated a shoulder a couple times now, sprained ankles, rolled ankles, hamstring strains, calf strains, tendonitis in my hands and knees.

i'm 33 and only just now realized that i live a near constant low level amount of pain. but i don't know how to classify it. between the injuries and the period and the baby i had last year and the subsequent recovery, i just view pain as a constant. i don't realize it's there until i can't ignore it and have to take medication due to not being able to move normally. and i've only just though to bring this up to my doctor. when she asked where on the scale i was, i had no idea how to answer. even with the little faces they have on the charts now.

i just... don't know. so i had to ask damn chat gpt to put it into terms i could understand. give me examples for each number. because apparently my pain scale is vastly different from others.

so now i'm putting it here. both as a reminder to myself, and to help anyone else who has an issue with this and doesn't realize it.

The Pain Scale

0 - No Pain

Description: You feel no discomfort or pain at all.

1 - Very Mild Pain

Description: Pain is barely noticeable. It's an annoyance but doesn't really bother you.

Example: A light scratch or the sensation of having a mild bruise.

2 - Mild Pain

Description: Pain is noticeable but easily ignored. You can still perform all activities without much thought to the pain.

Example: Minor headache or the discomfort from a small cut.

3 - Moderate Pain

Description: Pain is noticeable and distracting but you can still perform most activities. It's more annoying than limiting.

Example: Mildly sore muscles after a workout or the start of a migraine.

4 - Moderate to Severe Pain

Description: Pain is noticeable and harder to ignore, but you can still manage to perform daily activities with some effort.

Example: Moderate migraine, minor sprain, or a minor toothache.

5 - Severe Pain

Description: Pain is quite noticeable and cannot be ignored for long. It affects your ability to perform some activities.

Example: A bad headache, significant toothache, or sprained ankle.

6 - More Severe Pain

Description: Pain is difficult to ignore and significantly impacts your ability to perform daily activities.

Example: Bad migraine, severe back pain, or a very sore throat.

7 - Very Severe Pain

Description: Pain is so intense that it makes it difficult to concentrate or perform most activities.

Example: Intense migraine, severe sprain, or post-surgical pain.

8 - Intense Pain

Description: Pain is so severe that it limits your ability to do almost anything. It is hard to speak, think, or perform basic tasks.

Example: The pain from a broken bone, kidney stone, or severe dental abscess.

9 - Excruciating Pain

Description: Pain is unbearable. You are unable to perform any activities and may feel desperate for relief.

Example: Pain from a serious injury like a fracture, gallbladder attack, or post-surgical recovery without proper pain management.

10 - Unimaginable Pain

Description: Pain is so intense that you may pass out from it. This level of pain is usually reserved for the worst pain you have ever felt or could imagine.

Example: Childbirth without pain relief, major trauma, or severe burns.

#seriously #i sprained an ankle so bad i needed crutches for five weeks #and walked on it for half a mile before getting medical attention #i would've put that at like a 3-4 #childbirth #i would've put at like a 8-9 #pain scale
