After struggling to lose nearly 3 stone before my op which I had 10 days ago.
I can't believe I've put on nearly 10 lbs in the 10 days since my op, I was so pleased with the op itself in that the pain of arthritis has gone from one side of me.
Now stupidly I've been in floods of tears all morning over 10 lbs in weight.
Has this happened to anyone else?

You will get some water / fluid retention after the op. It is normal.
Medication can cause this as well as normal healing prosess.
Don't beat yourself up about it. You will loose that and more once you are more mobile and can get a bout easier.
