Well I had the operation on the 4th January and now I'm on bed rest and got 2 furry nurses and a wonderful husband carer!
Taking Oro-morph when I need it and got a weird boot I have to wear for 6 weeks.
The swelling is going down slowly and I'm behaving myself and having foot raised. Got my 1st post operation on 19th January.

    I'm pleased it's done and dusted, Bubba, now comes the boring bit, yes? Time always seem to drag when doing post-op recuperation especially in the dull and dark days of winter. DD

    Good to hear from you Bubba. Also great to know the op went well. I do hope you manage to keep boredom at bay now. Daytime TV isn't the best at times, is it?

    Take care,

    Glad it all went well. Good luck with tomorrow's post-op.
