Re: Itching
It probably is the anaesthetic hun. I had the same, my neck and face all around my mouth was so itchy. As the days went on I had really greasy skin too. It plays havoc with your body.
Hope it passes soon. .. x

Re: Itching
I've seen a couple of people have this reaction. I would wait another couple of days before taking anything. The GA should be out of your system around 3/4days, so if it continues after that, try an antihistamine. Obviously if it gets worse, short of breath, feeling nauseous, call your clinic immediately. But it normally passes in a day or two

Re: Itching
That's good! Omg can't even describe to anyone who hasn't gone through this what this pain is like. I was in the same position for ages and it really hurt but that was nothing compared to what I felt when I just got up! I'm just so uncomfortable! I swear the painkillers aren't actually doing anything? ? Dread to think what I would feel like without them! Wish I could sleep non stop for a few days!! How was sleeping last night? Xx

Re: Itching
That sounds like hormones and the ga to me. Hormones can cause unbearable itching and so can the ga. xxx
