Well the clips are out and the nurse is pleased with me.xxxx

[sylvi]

All clips are out and it does feel a lot better. I feel absolutely exhausted now after a walk round the close and from our car to the charity shop and that is not far. I will walk after lunch as i think i have done enough for this morning and i am tired now.

The nurse said the scar looks very well and clean and neat and the clips came out with very little pain which was lovely. Now is the hard part for me. I know i am getting better,but not better enough for me to go full steam ahead which is my want. I have to be oh so careful now. She said it will take up to 18mths for me to fully recover from this surgery,so it is going to be tough for me.

Have a lovely day all of you and thank you for your support during this painful time for me.xxxxx

Just take care Sylvi 💕💕🌺

Very pleased you have made such good progress following your op. It must be such a relief at last after all that you went thru.

Now turn your engines down to half power,and if things take a bit longer to do then so be it. On your really impatient days just remind yourself how you felt before this op and you certainly dont want to go back there.

Take care.

It's good when the clips come out as the skin isn't so tight at the wound.

Take it easy as it's major surgery you have had. I felt exactly the same after my recent knee replacement and eventually realised not to fight the exhaustion and go and rest.

Take care and glad to hear you are doing well xx

Brilliant when they come out I am 8 weeks post op for my right knee now. Still trying go full steam but like you get tired but we will get there. All the best 😀😀

[sylvi in reply to victoriablue]

As long as you do your exercises you will be fine. I have to walk and as i am going shopping i am going into Tesco i will take my scooter in there and ask if someone can walk round with me. Good luck on your recovery.xxxx

[helenlw7]

I think slow and steady is the order of the day! Good luck!

Good to hear that all's going well,sylvi.

Like you said,the hard part is pacing yourself - 18 months sounds like an eternity at the moment,but it'll soon fly by xx
