Hi Everyone 

sorry i havent written i had surgery on Wed and everything went well.

i stood up out of bed today a day later than planned as i had low hemoglobin so had to have transfusion. But i am ok now. Physio will be in tomorrow for my first walk. My leg is sore but not to bad.

When i stood up i was amazed at how good it felt. 😀

Looking forward to getting better everyday 😀😀😀

talk soon

    Glad your op went ok, looking forward to mine on Tuesday, pain cant be much worse than what I suffering at the moment as I have had to reduce alot of my meds before the op.

    Take things slowly.

    End of day 4 and feeling very good 😀

    Physio had me up to do very small walk in room.

    We will venture out hallway tomorrow

    I had a shower (let me just say felt awesome i could have just sat in there and let the hot water run) 😀

    Catheter out, ivs out and well aside from my leg being tight and sore (which is expected) i feel wonderful everyday i move a bit better. I fully understand i need to move slow and let it happen.

    Thank you for another good day 👍😀

    Talk tomorrow and gl to all the newbies who are right behind. You can do this.

    Hope everyone in recovery is continuing to feel good like me :-)

    Karen xx feeling happy
