I can't really remember, Cat, but I do know I drank a lot more than I do now. Plenty of fluids will be good for flushing out the anaesthetic. You can mention it to your doctor when you have your stitch removed. How are you feeling?

Hi. thanks for the replies,

I saw the ent on Tues and mentioned it and his response was to blame blood sugars, but i know it isn't that not unless the ranges have suddenly changed and between 4 - 7 is now bad.

I'm not feeling as bad as i expected to, but tired, achy and saturated are probably the best to describe it, although the first 2 could be from the constant up and down to the loo :-(

Perhaps you should discuss it with your GP or whoever manages your T2 Diabetes. ENT don't specialise in diabetes as far as I know and an endocrinologist might be more suitable.

I hope you feel better soon.

Cat79, I know what it means, TT but please try not to use abbreviations in your questions as not everyone knows what this is. Any excessive drinking needs to be checked out with your GP as it could be Diabetes. Just take a urine sample in to your nurse and it takes two minutes. (you might have to make an appointment)

Not what you're looking for?
