I suffer from anxiety & depression and i've had a bad bad day and i'm kind of out of my mind with worry at the moment. Hoping people can ease my mind
My mum went into hospital for dental surgery and while under anesthesia there was a complication, her oxygen dropped and they've kept her in over night in the high dependency ward. She and they tell me she'll be home in the morning but i can't stop worrying that i'm going to get a bad phone call any moment. Should i be worrying or am i making mountain's out of mole hills as usual. Does anyone know if this sounds normal being in high dependency ward for observation after oxygen dropped during surgery? is it a rare case? Thanks for any help |

It's not rare. My mother in law went in for surgery once and the same type of thing happened to her. Just keep her in your thoughts and prayers and know that she is in the best place she can be right now. They will watch her and take care of her.
I am a natural worrier; I worry about everything so I know how you feel. People would tell me that this is something that is totally out of your control; there is nothing you can do any differently right now. You worrying is natural, but it's not going to help. I know it sounds a lot easier said than done; I feel the same way! |

She's in good hands, I'm sure....and if this makes you feel any better at all, being under anesthesia felt great to me, I've never been so rested in my life
