萎縮卵的人工流產紀錄 D&C Procedure

我經歷了人生的第一個手術！

自從確認這一胎是萎縮卵，我心裡幾乎是肯定它不會自然流掉，好像早已預知必須接受人工流產，就好像喜歡冒險嘗鮮的個性，期待新的事物一樣，不知天高地厚，竟有些些期待這一天的到來。

排定了週六早上的手術，這樣老公可以陪我、媽媽可以帶千千，週五晚上就在娘家舒舒服服的過夜，經過一夜禁食，早晨九點半就到手術室報到。

說我一點也不緊張是騙人的。

原本以為是做半身麻醉，即全程清醒地知道醫生在做什麼。但是當麻醉醫師對我們解說麻醉衛教時，我才驚喜的發現，原來會做全身麻醉阿！

也就是說，我進去睡個覺，一覺醒來就差不多可以回家了，真好！ (我真是樂觀) 不知道麻醉醫師是否發現，當他說出全身麻醉時，我上揚的微笑嘴角。

報到後，我們坐在家屬等待區等了一會兒，原訂10:00的手術，到了快10:30才叫我進去換衣服，也許是醫師被前一個手術延誤到了吧。

換好衣服，頭戴綠色蘑菇帽的我，披著護士給我的熱被，坐在更衣室又等了近一小時，近乎睡著之際，就被叫醒帶往手術室。手術室牆上有個很大的電子鐘，我才知道原來已經11:28。

躺上手術台，一位溫柔的護士幫我裝上血壓計、心電板、點滴，一位男醫師幫我躺著的手術台裝上兩隻高腳，像生產用放腳的那種，一切都進行的很快很流暢，一邊聽著心電儀器傳來自己的心跳聲，我看見我的陳醫師走來跟我打招呼，輕拍我的手臂說：「思慧，放輕鬆，我們馬上就可以開始了喔！」護士才剛把麻醉藥打入點滴，我聽見另一位醫師說：藥打進去了嘛？護士回答：藥打進去了。我正想著是否該數秒，覺得有些暈眩，忽然我就不醒人事了。

醒來後，我已身處恢復室，是護士輕拍我把我叫醒的，牆上時鐘顯示12:30，已經過了一小時！我的頭很暈、有點輕微的噁心感，就跟麻醉醫師說得正常副作用一樣，不久護士再來幫我調整床，讓我斜躺，問我感覺如何，我說：感覺子宮在收縮，她說有幫我注射子宮收縮藥到點滴裡，幫助子宮復原。這感覺跟剛生完千千時的收縮很像，只是比較輕微。室溫較低會冷，護士也馬上拿熱被幫我蓋身體包頭，還有一個熱照燈照我的身體，真是超級週到。

大約一點多，已經在恢復室待了一個小時，可以回家了，護士才請老公進來接我。看著老公背著包包、手拿我的衣服鞋子，有些不知所措地跟著護士後面進來，我們都笑了，我的樣子應該也沒多好看。

醫生叮囑，因為麻醉的關係，兩天內都不可自行開車騎車。果然，回到家我繼續暈了一下午，到徬晚才覺得正常了些。

目前為止，我感覺身體恢復的不錯，肚子不會痛，今天回診醫師也表示很好，待兩週後再回去看檢體化驗報告囉。

I just had my first surgery.
(I'll just make it simple in English.)

Few weeks ago I was diagnosed early pregnancy failure, a blighted ovum. Doctor recommended to wait for two weeks and see if it would come out naturally like miscarriage otherwise a surgery, the D&C, will have to be done.

So I had prayed and waited for two weeks and nothing happened. No pain or blood, nothing! It seems I've already known that the surgery had to be done, like I really wanted to experience this new surgery stuff.

Last Saturday was the big day. Okay I was nervous. But luckily we found out it will be a general anaesthesia, which means I would just go to sleep and wouldn't feel a thing. That's exciting. Never had that before and always wanted to try.

Skip all the details. The surgery went very well. I woke up in a different room and rest for one hour before my husband came to pick me up for home. Poor guy, he had waited for 3 hours outside. The anaesthesia kept me dizzy for one day, other than that I feel very good.

This morning I went back to the hospital and my doctor told me the surgery was very successful. It's a simple surgery and only took 15 minutes to be done.
I haven't felt any unusual since then. I only need to return in two weeks to see the exam report.
