I don't do this often but...

OMG, I'm in pain...

I've just had electrolysis again and this time it hurts like hell.
I'm lying on the sofa about to go to bed before 9pm just because it's getting to me...

I've even written this on my phone as I can't sit at the computer.

Sorry, felling sorry for myself a little...

Ow :(

  1. Know how you feel. I am going to be a total wuss next time and have a dental block.

    I do wonder if we are discussing different parts of the body though ....

    It WILL be worth it in the end

    1. Different parts yes :)

      Considering the difference I feel now between laser and electrolysis I am rather glad I never needed that on my face!

      It will be worth it, but last night was so not fun...

    1. Thanks Cass.

      It's better this morning than last night - but the last feeling of being kicked is still there, and once the cream wears off I imagine that will be replaced with other pain

      That is what happened last night in reverse - I went to bed and it was sore, I put the cream on and the soreness went away only to be replaced by the ache!

  3. I used to do everything to avoid any kind of pain so faced IPL and electrolysis with trepidation. If I was unable to face the treatment I was going to fail at the first hurdle...

    I flinched with the first few zaps before I realised that I had to accept the pain rather than react to it. I started to appreciate that every zap was unique and the differences were fascinating, I got so used to the treatment that I was close to sleep a few times!

    There was a spot near an old scar which would have me twitching uncontrollably and top lip could bring me to silent tears but on the whole I miss my sessions and the friendly folk who worked there...

    1. For the most part I can accept it (and even with the intensity of it yesterday never thought about asking her to stop - even if I was wishing each zap was the last one!)

      But, that was nothing to the evening when the anesthetic wore off... Sitting and walking were not the most fun - and never before have I come home and just collapsed in the fetal position fighting back the tears.

      Hopefully I'm nearing the end of this! (And hopefully in a couple of weeks it is not this bad!)
