    Hi Karen,

    Sending you positive thoughts for a successful surgery and a smooth recovery.  I underwent a sgy only four weeks post my A&P with TOT (was what turned out to be an  extensive shoulder repair which entails a LONG recovery as opposed to the 2 weeks he had hoped for).  7+ weeks out from first sgy and still a month out from return to work, I know I am just so ready to get back to health!  As patience for me is so difficult at this point, I am also sending you prayers for a peaceful and patient time of healing!

    Prayers for you, Karen! You just go with the mindset that your recovery will not be a picnic but with patience you can do it! Just remember to rest and follow your doctor’s instructions! Against n, praying all goes well for you!

      Hi yes I’m having hernia repaired as causing lots of pain he’s also going to check for bowel blockage and pull up rectum using just stitch as they had hoped that tightening stitches from hysterectomy would be enough but unfortunately not the case...I’ve got up this morning with a terrible tickle in my throat

      Wow that's a lot of surgery so soon after.

      Are you in uk? X

      I know would not perform surgery so soon after a major one. They are all certainly different.x

      Yes in uk... I have to have hernia and bowel checked as causing blockage so may as well get it all over with at once instead of more surgery down the line x
