Hi All
I had my diagnostic lap done on the 2nd October and am recovering well but slowly well that's how it feels lol , I even went for a very short walk yesterday with a snail.
Just wandering how long it usually takes for the stitches to dissolve and for the swelling to go down ? I understand it is very different for most people as it depends on what you actually had done during surgery .
I have now stopped taking codeine altogether and just take the odd ibuprofen when needed which is usually late afternoon, evening time when my body is a little tired and achy . I am hoping to go back to work on Monday if I feel ready. I am a cleaner so would probably start of with light duties, although it depends if I am able to drive as still a bit fragile being a passenger in a car.
Sorry this post has gone on a bit longer than I intended it to be . Just very bored waiting for my body to heal ..
I hope you are all okay
