Infected Sebaceous Cyst

A bad week is capped off with a surgery at NUH yesterday at noon. Before you guys think of anything, the surgery is for nothing serious. Basically, i have this lump on my armpit which has been on me for almost a year. When it first came out, i didn't think it was that serious. But the pain suddenly came about a month ago. And i can tell you the pain is unbearable. So i decided its time i removed it, thinking also that i might be cancerous. Thankfully, its not. So, when to NUH, the kent ridge wing for the surgery with my mum. Had to change into the hospital's clothes which actually was quite comfortable except for the disposable underwear. Disposable underwear is not recommended unless of course when you're going for camping or hiking :/ After waiting for quite sometime, i finally went into surgery. How many of you guys have gone for surgery before? Well, the feeling when you're in the surgery room is just surreal. I've only seen in tv shows like Er and what not. The nurses cover me up with two blankets and some other stuff. The room was very cold actually but i wasn't really shivering. The only thing that makes me shiver was the surgery itself. Oh ya, the name of the surgery is 'excision biopsy of the left axillary lump'. Sounds cool right hahaha..... There was this male nurse that kept me comfortable the whole time. He talked to me so as to take my mind of the surgery. Well, it did help initially la. Ok, let me go tell you generally what i went through. First of all, the doctor(or surgeon) was a young guy who looked comfident and assured. That made me feel confident that everything will be fine. Then, he injected 4 times around the infected area. I hate needles so you can bet your ass it hurts when he injected. After a while, my whole arm became numb and throughout the excision, i didn't feel anything but almost at the end, i felt something. I presume that the doctor was using a laser or something to cut out the cyst because i could feel the burn on my flesh. It was fucking painful. Seriously. When he asked me whether i felt anything and i said 'ya', he gave me another injection to make my arm go numb again. So all in all, it took almost 45 minutes before i left the surgery room. The doctor then gave me 10 days MC. Thank god. Because i could hardly bend my arm. I'm walking like a retard. Well, not really like a retard but more like someone who has a broken arm with the arm sling bandage. I'm still in pain as we speak. I could hardly sleep, shave, eat and bathe. So i guess i have to stay at home and get alot of rest. Won't be able to do any workout for the time being also. Was suppose to go out today but don't think i'll be able to make it. sigh.... It has been a year of suffering and we're not even halfway through the year. I can only hope that things would change for the better. *shaking head* I know i will get through this. I just know it.
