Once again I sweated a lot in the night and was very itchy again, so the subconscious me tried to take the dressing off. I must’ve been a bit more aware and stopped before I did too much damage. There was quite a bit of disruption on the ward about 1am but I soon got back to sleep. I awoke in a lot of pain and was extremely grateful when i was given my morning tramadol and paracetamol.
The dressing wasn’t too bad but the nurse changed it anyway, and I used the opportunity to get my first sight of the wound. I had asked C to get a photo of the scar before I came in to hospital, so here you can see the before and after images. I think the incision starts further up my neck this time.
