2 weeks post op

See previous entry

I am officially 2 weeks and 1 day post op today and I feel pretty good. I still feel quite tired on occasion and I still am not allowed to lift or carry anything over 6lbs, but other than that it’s all going well.

My wound is now healing externally and I am forming a scar nicely. There are marks where the staples were, but they are healing gently like any other cut that scabs over. I am still being careful about rolling in and out of bed, but even that has got easier and I am even able to sleep on my side comfortably now – which is a MASSIVE relief.

I am finding walking much easier and am up to about a 2o minute walk – Come on!  Although my friend visited me last night and she warned me that this was the “Danger Time”. What she meant was, that I feel much better so the temptation is to start doing normal things again – however, I will have to reign myself in. I might be healing on the outside, but the inside is still mending.  I still have to take it easy and not do too much.

I still think my trend is up though, which is fab x
