Returning to work.

Hi
just had a discussion with my consultant via his secretary and he has given me the all clear to go back to work on Monday,i will be 18 days post op.I normally work in the community as a nurse however will be office bound until i can drive and the only stipulation is that i continue to adhere to restrictions which we all know so well.So chuffed to get out of here and be with my chums.

The way i look at it is this-i am not sick and do not believe in the"sick role" mentality-i will probably be doing less then i am now but at least i am in a position to help my over stretched nursing colleagues.
Good luck

yes you read it right.My consultant and physio have both commented on my level of fitness and muscle tone-i am basically physically fit,slim and 49-it makes the world of difference.My mentality is very positive and that impacts greatly on your recovery.

None what so ever,doesn't look like i've had anything done-it has shocked me totally,i was expecting to be laid up for ages-all credit to my consultant who completely adheres to a rapid recovery and it must be down to his technique.My mum had hers done 10 years ago and had a swollen leg/ankle for 6 months.
