Sounds like you’re making good progress. Early days still so take things easy.

Mark,

Sounds like you are doing great.

I found it hard to sleep for the first 10 days or so. It all gets better

Mike,

Yes the discomfort is ruining my sleep, know it will take a while for things to settle down.

Great update Mark. Take it easy and avoid lifting anything.

Hope you have a nice smooth recovery.

Early days for you Mark. Remember you have had major surgery and listen to your body. It gets easier believe me.

Very best

Heaviest thing I am lifting Kev is a cuppa 😆

Glad you seem to be recovering well!

One thing I wasn't warned about but found a few weeks after surgery was, if I overdid the lifting or twisted myself awkwardly, I got sharp pains from my wounds and thought I'd torn something internally as that's what it felt like. Pronounced pain that occasionally would go on for as much as 1-2 days. However it looks like it was the results of nerve damage. So if you get it too once you're jumping around again.....don't over-worry!

Yes I have been getting those pains every now and again especially when I lay on my side when trying to get to sleep. It just seem to be one particular wound that is giving me the problem but it goes away.
