Post surgery walking

I am now into my second week of post op recovery (hysterectomy) so yesterday and today I had the shortest of strolls down the road.

It has been so grey and dreary out so I shouldn't complain about enforced bedrest, but I am getting restless! Thank goodness for box sets on BBCiplayer!!!

I can't wait to get mobile again!

Thanks Hidden They do tell you to start taking little walks in the second week so it's ok, but don't worry, I will be careful!

Cabin fever is a terrible feeling. Glad you were able to get out for a toodle, I found with my injury even the shortest of walks felt like progress and were good for my mood.
