About Mrleeg71

Hi all, i had the whipple procedure done 12 days ago now. Since having the op, i feel absolutely exhausted from doing the slightest thing. Packing my suitcase to leave the hospital, took everything I had, yesterday. Today i took a short walk and by the time I got back i was sweating and breathless. Before I had the procedure, I was always fairly active. Just wondered what others experience was around this. Also one side of the wound is quite weepy. Be happy to hear from anyone who is further on in the recovery process. Is this to expected or should I seek medical help? Tia
