Hey guys thanks for your replies.. A week on from surgery and I'm still not right. I've suffered nausea as a result of constipation, drugs and anxiety. It's still happening now... And although I'm out hospital I still have a catheter in and the pain is bad. The chance of UTI is high and the possible associated nausea bothers me. I was discharged on Sun (stayed five days) and I'm still stressing that I have picked up a bug from hospital. Not only that when I was in hospital I was surrounded by people who v* - and there was no escape on the ward. It was torture.

Basically ever since the op my head has been in a spin. It's one thing going through the physical and emotional trauma of surgery but to have a phobia like this makes everything even worse :/ on Sunday I was retching from constipation... The memory of it is still fresh in my mind and filling me with dread...

I would appreciate any encouragement please
