Going through hell
I have thyroid cancer and everyone said it was no big deal well that was bs cause i had surgery and since the cancer was very bad there was a lot of cutting involved and a lot of pain i had my thyroid removed and lymph nodes now i have to go for a second surgery on tuesday because of fluid buildup i have so much pain for over a month now and they will not give out pain meds and my cancer is serious and spread to the lymph nodes i have an 11 inch scar across my neck and now this buildup that my surgeon has been draining just wouldnt stop building up and i cant sleep comfortably i ended up getting pain meds illegally because the pain was so inbearable i coughed for a week after the surgery because of the tube down my throat the hospital made a big deal about giving pain meds and i was suffering my cancer was worse than what people usually get done i had more than a thyroidectomy the lymph nodes had to be removed. I had a bad tumor on the left side of my neck where i now have the fluid buildup its unbearable im afraid of something else going wrong with this surgery he has to go in to stitch something up to stop the fluid the surgery is an hour its not as bad as the first time which was 4 hours and a lot of cutting in the area hes going to cut into again. To anyone that downplays thyroid cancer f..u. I had to resort to getting real pain meds illegally to not suffer cause they would only give me tylenol3 and it was a major surgery and i had it with people saying thats not sober. Talk that b.s. When u get cancer and no one cares about your suffering and makes a big deal about giving pain meds in the hospital after waking up u guys that are in "real recovery" should take aspirin when u have surgery. I bet u would beg for pain relief. Cause getting cut up all over your neck is no fun and then to get this crap afterwards its unbearable i cant do anything with this tennis ball in my neck i dont even have an appetite and if i get one i lose it quickly causeveating and swallowing is such a pain and its so stiff for weeks now and i get terrible stabbing pinching pains i feel im gonna go nuts and now i gotta go for another operation tuesday and get over more pain i have real pain meds im not suffering anymore and im taking it for my pain not to get high but its a shame that i have to do something illegal cause doctors are p****** and cant write a prescription for plain old percocet but the idiot i bought it over gets them easily just like his family members and theres nothing wrong with them they have no pain. How backwards everything is and while all of us cancer patients are left in the recovery room to suffer and rationed and given .5 dilaudid. Not even 1mg for a serious operation. Ive taken an 8 mg dilaudid pill for a herniated disc in my lower back years ago and that only dulled that pain. Everyone in the hospital was in pain i cant believe what i saw just letting everyone suffer in pain its insane and now im gonna go through this again with these idiots
