cancelled surgery / morphine / rant / update

loopylou1981

hey all,I haven't been on here in a while as things have been crazy waiting for bone fusion surgery in my foot. I had my injections & got very little relief. Saw the surgeon again & was put on the list for surgery & was told 6-8 weeks. I had a call & was given a date. i was soo ready to be pain free even though i know i will be in plaster for about 4 months.
i had pre op & 2 days before surgery my operation was cancelled as they reviewed my scans & notes & decided they wanted a surgeon who was higher up to do it. i can understand why but its so frustrating!! i sort of put up with pain although was taking tramadol i thought id get through a few more weeks of waiting. I even gave up smoking so i have more chance of the surgery working..... go me!!! its been nearly 6 weeks and ive not had a puff.
Anyway i ended up going back to g.p as pain was so intense & now im on morphine. a route i didnt want to take. does anyone have any advice on pain relief? im so fed up & feel a walking zombie! :-( louise xxx
