Infection.

Been feeling terrible. Awful pain in scar. Went to doctors today to be told I have cellulitis in my wound. So bloody painful.

I'm tearful today. Feeling sorry for myself. Thought 2 weeks post surgery I would be feeling better not feeling worse.

Hopefully antibiotics will kick in soon and I will start to feel a bit better.

So sorry to hear that. You have had such a tough time. Hopefully you will feel a lot better in a couple of days once the antibiotics start working. x

Thinking of you ❤️ Tears and mood changes are normal at the best of times so be kind to yourself ❤️

It's very early days yet believe me, I'm almost 3 months and feel fine one day but washed out the next two . . . There really is no rushing the healing process 😕

Try to be patient, kept cosy and get lots of rest, I didn't really leave my bed let alone the house much for the first month of so 😊

Best wishes to you 😊😊😊

Chel69 sorry to hear :-( I think we were like a week apart from our op dates I'm 3 weeks post op I have had one break out in pimples and one big day of moodiness :-( but apart from the odd pulling or stabbing pain I've been ok except I'm walking up with terrible gas every morning and a massive appetite :-( ...! Really hope the infection clears asap and your feeling better xx

How's the pain going now? And hopefully the antibiotics have kicked in? I'm now 4 weeks post op eating everything in site arg :-) and muscles must be going back as the pulling sharp pains are getting more regular but feel great more energy than before surgery :-) and CANT sleep arg

Finally antibiotics are working. Feeling good one day and think I'm turning a corner then terrible the next. I suppose I'm expecting too much. It's only just over 3 weeks. But I am getting there. Looking forward to feeling stronger for Xmas. Going out for a few hours with my son and his wife tomorrow, first proper outing so looking forward to it.x
