Hello,
Considering all thats happened to me over the last two weeks, I thought I had been doing quite well, until yesterday. Where I had the pethidine injection in my leg, during labour, has been painful ever since but had gradually gone to a dull pain if I tried to bend too far. Yesterday, thinking it was much better I bent down and it hurt really bad and has been worse ever since. I'm walking, as one of my customers said, like Long John Silver!!! What I don't understand, is that now, all of a sudden all of my panic symptoms are back with avengeance. I'm shaking, my mind is in overdrive, the missed beats and the unreal feelings. I'm really in a state and can't concentrate on anything and I am really irritable. I am also tired and can't see a time when I can have a proper break, especially as I have no help at all at work. I am resting as much as possible when I get home, but the house is beginning to look like a bombsite, my ironing is piling up....all the usual stuff. My husband is being really good and doing as much as he can but he works really long hours too.
Meg, re the pethidine injection, can you shed any light on why it is still so painful and have I made it worse, by bending it and somehow pulling it?
I really can't cope with the feelings of panic right now but should really have expected that they would return with everything that has happened. We still haven't been given a date for the babies funeral, so still have that to face. The ectopics and the shakiness are the worst of my panic symptoms and, before this I had been coping quite well.
Please help.
