BA three weeks ago, surgeon says I would be OK to go on a 3 day boating trip post op 5 weeks. She assured me I would be fine but now I'm still feeling really sore &getting worried. The last thing I want is to be in pain noticeably..They do not know about my surgery. I plan to tell them my back is hurt to get out of water sports but I'm worried even sitting on the boat will have me in pain. A bought suits that provide a lot of support. if anyone can share their experience or advice please do so!
