Will be even worse tomorrow. tomorrow at 3.45 I have an appointment at a local surgery for a minor op. I have to have a sebacious cyst removed from the back of my head. A surgeon from Gloucester hospital goes to this surgery once a week to do minor ops.. I am such a coward. I know it is nothing compared to what some people go through. But this is MY head. Cheer me up someone Ann Glos

Ask the nurse to give you a lollie for being so brave. Good luck Ann xxxxxxx

good luck ann, will be thinking of you lynnxx

Sending you lots of positive thoughts honey XXXXX lots of love becx

Im sure you will fine ann, we will be think of you, i know how you feel im exactly the same, i have an appointment next week to see a plastic surgeon at addenbrookes, he is removing about 6 tumours from my ear lob, not sure when he is doing it but im not looking forward to it lol good luck, let us know how it goes kim xxx

Aww Ann I sympathise with you honey. my hubby has had a few removed at out local GP surgery. Our GP does them if they get too big. Apparently it shouldn't hurt too much it'll just sting a bit when the local wears off. Be a brave girl and have a couple of paracetamol before you go. That'll help. If your feeling a bit scared you could try Bach Flower Rescue Remedy. Very good for restoring your equilibrium in case of fear or shock !! I swear by it. You can get it in Boots or health food shops. Love and healing on it's way. XX Sioux

thank you all for your thoughts, it does help. Husbad is very supportive and coming with me, but I don't even like the dentist. What a big baby (at my age too). Ann

Good luck Ann, a friend has two to be removed & she's not looking forward to it either. It's the second time for her. Vivienne

HI. i know how you feel. I dont like hospitals or doctors. But i have had lots of operations on my knees and as much as i hate it i always feel better afterwards and think..... that wasnt as bad as i though. Grit your teeth, you will be fine. will think of you deb :-)

You will be fine and so relieved that its gone. I had a sebacious(spelling??) wart removed from the side of my trunk near my booby & it was over so quick, was just happy it was gone.. Had local jab which wasnt that bad,had worse when had catarracts done. & it was over in a flash. YOU WILL BE FINE. Shirley

Karen, mine doesn't hurt and my previous doctor was content to leave it for the moment. Then I mentioned it to my new doctor (old one retired) and before I knew it he'd made an appointment for me to have it done. If he hadn't i would have gone on prevaricating. it i starting to aggravate when i go to the hairdressers as it is just where the edge of the basin presses. I will let you know all about it. Somone else on here has had it done and she assures me that it is not a painful process, except the stitches kept catching on her hair a bit. My hair is short so hopefully wont have that problem. By all means pm me later next week about it. Ann

sending best wishes to you, Ann :-) Joy

again, thanks for caring. Ann

Ann will be thinking about you tomorrow afternoon. sending you big (((hugs))) Annexx

Big hug and best wishes for you Ann xx

I'll be thinking of you Ann - and if for any reason it turns out your husband can't come with you - give me a shout and I'll be there ok? Best of luck - I'm sure it will be fine. :-)) Love and Hugs Magsxxxx

Sure you will be ok Ann had some minor surgery a couple of times to remove ingrowing toenail and then the nail bed, you will be fine honest,I myself prefer local aneasthetic to a general one you dont feel groggy after and they are painless. Lots of Love Davex

Hi Ann - have just left a message on your other thread (credit card) then found this one. Take care, everything will be fine - have a swig of brandy as you leave the house!!!!! lol Jude sarf wales xx

Hello Ann,I am sure everything will be fine,everyone has something they know they have to do and don;t like doing,but just think how nice it will be to have your hair washed at the hairdressers without having to sit back very gingerly in the chair.Speake to you soon Hugs and love Brenda

Good luck for tomorrow Ann Cherry
