Hello SaraC1,

                        like yourself l had 60% of my Liver resected and l have to tell you that with a history of over 20 operations for shattered arm,leg, hip replacements and bowel surgery the Liver was by far the worst and took the longest to come good.

You are writing this some five weeks after the event---so much is your giddy-up you must have been a Pony Express rider in a previous life! .l spent ten days strapped into a hammock after the op ,and the next four weeks trying desperately not to breathe deep, cough, sneeze, jolt from sudden movement or laugh, and despite my history l am highly active and fit

My recollection is that what you describe is par for the course, and yes the liver will take longer to heal than say muscle which has a greater blood flow, certainly l think things should improve after 3 months

take care, give your body a little more time to heal and your mind some time off,

David
