To say it was uncomfortable would be akin to saying that Edgar Allen Poe was just a poet.

I was born wrong as a child, and even in death I could not find rest.
Now, my body has been reborn, melded with machines and
cybernetics to create a new person. I am born anew,
and I can only guess where my life will take me...

That of the matron.
