Lucky # Sevens- July 07 Bandsters
Hie everyone, how you doing? I've not had a great experience, like Breadlady! I get the taxi after i let my last post on tuesday morning! I was 1st to get banded which as fab on lady was waiting 8 hours. Out of 6 of us i was the only person with the shoulder pain! it was so awful and i am still in a LOT of pain! I feel like i need to be streached out! I can feel the band through my skin! that doesn't bother me though. Annafrancesca has already dug her foot into me which made me tear up for 5 mins thats was also very sore After the surgery i went to the toilet to change into my pyjams and i collapse hitting my head off the sink! i dont know exactly how long i was out for but it made al the pain even worst. at 11pm last night the nurses gave us morphine and that didn't work on me, i tried to sleep sitting in the chair but the nurses can in and told me to get to bed as i was trying to get into bed, they kind of pushed me down, and they caused me to really hurt myself i taught i wasn't breathing with the pain. this happened earlier in the day! they blamed the gas but i honestly believe it was from when i colasped i had one of the attacked earlier in the evening about 7.30pm I'm not home long, i'm just hoping that the pain eases soon cos it's not very nice. i wish it upon NO-ONE If anyone wants to know anything just ask, i'm sorry to post that i've not got on great but i feel you should know the good with the bad, and also i honestly believe that if i had not collasped i wouldn't be in this pain. Welcome all the newbies welcome on bored Oh also thanks for your nice wishes xx

Lucky # Sevens- July 07 Bandsters
Sunshine i'm all for blaming Lynette!!!!! The Irish do like to drink indeed but because both my parents are Italian i gew up the Italian way of thinking and living. Therefore I do enjoy an odd glass of wine but other than that i do not drink, where has Irish people through and though (not all) drink a lot. Particularly younger people teens and twenties have a major problem with there drink. i was brought up being allowed to have a glass of wine at dinner and parties but Irish kids in general are not allowed to drink till there 18 then its like they can't help thereselves. the legal age to drink in Ireland is 18. its 21 in the States isn't it Was that too much info????
