surgery closer than I thought

[Jane]

My surgeon said that it would take a couple of months to get over the op and then I would start to feel the benefit of it. I took about 5 and a half months before I went back to work and then only gradually. You need time after the op to build up your fitness levels too. You will know when you start to feel better. Everyone is different, so don't be bullied or made to feel inadequate if you take a little longer. On the other hand, don't knock it if you are quicker!!!


Good luck. We are thinking of you.

I agree that the catheter test was worse than the OHS. If ever I have one again, I shall insist on high levels of sedation. Also I had to lie flat for about 6 hours or so afterwards, and all the time I was dying to go to the loo!!
