    Hey all,

    I’ve been pretty much in bed since I got home yesterday at 2pm, I’ve been up to wee & stretch my legs every few hours but I’m absolutely shattered and feel like I need to rest. Just a bit worried from a clot point of view. I still have my sexy socks on. I’m probably up for 10 mins every 3 hours on average. Pain is loads better today just wrecked. Is anyone else the same? Do I have to be up and doing stuff?

    I was going for walks from 3 days post op, I went shopping but didn’t really do any lifting… my nurse told me to keep motivated, but do that as much as you want to. You know your body best xx

    Hey Cliona! Hope your op went well too, I think we were in on the same day. I think I over did it yesterday as I felt fine once home but the pain hit me around midnight and I couldn’t lie even slightly back so slept in a chair. Think the rest for a few hours then move around a bit sounds like a good idea 🙂 Glad your pain has subsided today- happy healing! Xx
