It's been a week since my procedure. The hole on my left leg is no more than a pin prick and the slightly larger wound on the right side has healed without any problems. The bruising has also settled.
I've started walking to the shops around the corner and will be ready to go a little further in the next week or two. I have a lot more energy now that the effects of the operation has worn off and don't feel sleepy in the afternoons any more.
I've had a few random beats on and off during the night over the past couple of nights, but nothing more.
I'm feeling positive and taking each day as it comes.
