Surgery was simple, walked into the operating theatre, jumped up on the table and went to sleep. Woke up a couple of hours later with my head wrapped tightly in a huge bandage with a tuft of hair sticking out the top. Not much pain but got bad nausea which I had heaps of medication for. I had the nausea for about 20 hours before it got any better. My jaw is a bit sore but nothing too major. The vertigo is sticking around but I have medication for that too, not sure that's it's working.
My residual hearing is gone, beforehand I could hear the dog bark, doors slam, that sort of thing. Now I hear nothing, nothing at all. Thanks goodness I learnt to lipread otherwise I'd be in real trouble. My youngest son asked last night "can you hear me now"? I had to say no.
Otherwise, things are going well and it's just a matter of waiting for the next step. x
Not my best look!
