Fingers crossed you are well for Thursday jencat, but if it takes a little extra time to be well before and the op has to wait, then that will be for the best, as frustrating as it is. Ive had a good day today. Lazy morning, lunch, then a walk by the river to the park with hubby and girls. Not felt tearful today, so yes I think anaesthetic etc playing a part there. I felt quite a bit less tired today too. I've found I'm ok to do a small amount of something physical, like taking a shower or fold laundry, but if I was to shower then fold laundry and go and put it all away straight after and fill washing machine again, I'd feel tired and need a nap, so I've learned to do little bits here and there and leave the rest for hubby! I've managed a careful shower every day, but did need to pop to my surgery to get some extra dressing applied. (My surgeon wants the dressings kept on for two full weeks) and after four days they have started to lift, even with clingfilming over them for showering. Starting to feel a bit stinky though as not allowed to use deodorant on that arm pit - Not sure I can do much about that other than wash as close as I can and use a string perfume. I am feeling a bit self conscious about it though!!!
