7 weeks post op and feeling a bit blue today
Posted , 13 users are following.
Hi there,
After the thrill of seeing consultant st 6 week check and getting driving again I'm in a bit of a slump.
I went for my favourite woodland walk which is pretty much all uphill and because my dog ran off I had to go much further than I planned! So effectively did 1.5 miles steep up hill and then the same steep downhill! And so I'm back to being a wee bit sore and not feeling very stable on just one crutch so back to 2. .
I know this is a journey and it can't be rushed but the frustrations are difficult!
I'm desperate to be fully functioning by the end of the school holidays so I can get back to work but cannot imagine it's going to happen.
Sorry for the moan, but I know those on this forum understand and it saves being a moaning Minnie to those around me!

Hi don't get disheartened I'm now nearly 7 months post op and I don't think I could even try to do what you did. I'm not walking far all only shopping and up and downstairs and around the house.im still having problems with my foot and I'm waiting for a nerve conduction test to hopefully sort it.
I still ill have to keep resting and often wonder how much I can walk. I'm a member of the ramblers society and can't wait to get back to walking with them.
Its a long recovery and keep up the good work you are doing walking and resting but not too much.
All the best for a good recovery Brenda C
