CLAIM YOUR PROFILEHello.....firstly thankyou to everybody who has wrote posts and help me making my decision and answering loads of queries. Im excited for surgery but anxious about the recovery time, as i understand everyone is different, so i will post as much as i can my trials and tribulations of my recovery. Ive started scrubbing the house and buying my supplies for recovery, thank god for cable tv! lol i might just start doing jigsaws Updated on 20 Oct 2014: Im so excited, my surgery will have been all done a week today, is it normal to feel excited and not at all nervous? I've not bought a compression garment yet, but I do have a Spanx which goes under my bust and just half way down my thighs, would this be suitable? Updated on 31 Oct 2014: well I'm absolutely chuffed that my pain is at a very low level and I'm managing to walk with just a little hunch over, I've started bruising and I have all the expected ups and downs, crying for no reason, narking at the kids, and restlessness, but it's just a blip in my recovery journey. My daughter is taking me for a drive tomorrow for a change of scenery, I won't be getting out of the car as I look like a wild banshee, I can't wait to take a bubble bath. Heaven. Updated on 5 Nov 2014: Sorry guys not very pretty, but has anybody else had bruising on hips? Updated on 1 Feb 2015: i have had a dull ache on mynleftmside, I think it's muscular, is this common?
