Weak and tired - you're right.Doctors have said listen to your body, do what it tells you, another said most people that had had what I have had done would still be in bed - I was up in my dressing gown when he saw me. I have been out three times so far since returning home, all medical appointments - splenectomy vaccination, blood tests, and renal clinic appointment. 21st March I shall be seen by the surgeon who did the operation. I do get impatient with myself, my husband is patient, bless him.
Take each day as it comes is absolutely the right thing to do. I just get impatient sometimes!
Hi Mary,
It's really great to hear from you and to discover that your recovery is doing so well. I know that you'll feel impatient that things are not moving fast enough, but you are certainly doing better than I was at this stage post surgery - they still had me incarcerated in a hospital bed. It's reassuring to hear that you have been out 3 times, albeit to hospital appointments. I notice that you'll see your surgeon soon and I hope that the appointment goes well. Continue to take things day by day and you'll eventually get there.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. Don't forget that we are always here for you.
Kind regards,
Jolamine xx
