Starting to feel a lot more normal now...not needing pain meds anymore part from a couple of days late afternoon probably after doing a bit to much! I think I've felt every emotion possible in the last 4 weeks from caged animal syndrome from being stuck on couch and unable to do basic tasks too elation that I've finally made it to the flat side my but I'm starting to feel like I'm turning a corner! I've been having twice weekly wound checks with my fabulous plastics nurse anglea who I think has been extra accommodating once I voiced my anxiety over infection and the fact I'm somewhat squeamish! She's been a superstar I had a 3in long sticky wet patch along incision line for a day or two around 2weeks post op that was down to 1/2in after 2 days with the silicone foam patch she put on and last Thursday she said it looked good enough for me to leave it a week before I see her again! Delighted is an understatement...keep having to pinch myself as I can't quite believe it's been such a smooth recovery so far...fingers crossed this afternoon swell hell starts to ease soon as I'm dying to start going on my evening walks...happy healing X X

Looking good... I'm 3 weeks and 3 days but my BB doesn't look as decent as yours, I hate touching it and cleaning it is the worst... I do a half Beep job on it because I can't stand the way it feels .. What is a plastic nurse, I want one lol
