Surgery scares me because of being put under, I worry if I will wake from it and the thought of them taking 3 bones out of my hand turns my stomach. I know my quality of life will be better after the healing but he told me it will be a year before I am happy with it and that worries me. I know I need to do it BUT>>>>I am scared>>>>>.
I have heard that taking a zinc tablet every day will help from getting sick. I do not know if that is true, also I had a doctor who I liked going to tell me to put Neosporin, the triple antibiotic, on a Q-Tip and rub it on the inside of your nose to keep from getting sick. He said that is all he uses it for. I hope you can stay healthy through this flu season.
Every Surgery has a risk. For hand surgery, will they put you under? or they will give the regional block only?
Zinc has some immune booster effects. It may help!
I thought they would put me under but now I am not sure, I would rather have the regional block.
