Everything done, bags packed, and finished work. All I have to do is wait for the morning, feeling quiet calm (think the lovely sunshine helps) had some lovely cards from my collegues,will speak to my family tonight. Will let you know how things go when I get home, Cannot believe how quick it has come round when I was told in Dec I would need a TAH and would be about 16 weeks wait It seemed an age away now im less than 16 hours away. Thanks for all of your support and tips and will speak to you all very soon.

    Hi Nicola 

    Good luck for tomorrow, yes the sunshine gives you a good boost doesn't it?  Have a lovely restful evening, try and get a goodnight's sleep.  

    Let me know how you get on, and see your 'on the other side'.

    Love

      Hi Nikki

      Yes I am recovering very well.  I feel amazing, with everything back in its correct place!  Walked Rosie this afternoon, she was so happy, and so was I, we sat on a bench in the park and watched the world go by, and then a stroll home, bliss!

      I will be thinking of you tomorrow, hope you are as painless as I am.  Fingers crossed.

      Love

    Hi Nikki

    I wish you well for your op. However, have you remembered to pack the peppermint oil??? Cos you will need it for the wind (sorry to say - mine hurt more then the op!!)

    I am now 10 weeks post op and have been back to work for the past 2 weeks - light hours - And I still have wind. Now only when I walk!!!

    Oh & make sure your friends bring you in some nice food bits in and take a couple of bottles of water in with you..

    All the very best.

    Jo

    Good luck Nicola

    I m 5 days post op, all I can say is don't worry about the op so much it's the recovery that's harder. Definately the wind pain is the worst. Good luck x
