Not Bouncing Back Like I Thought

Hello Everyone!

I am 9 dates Post Op and I have had a difficult time bouncing back.

I work a labor intensive job and I am not going back to work until next week.

I feel kinda depressed about it because most people seem to bounce back better than that.

I was very sick after surgery due to an allergy to the pain killers. I had vomitting for the first 12 hours after surgery. It really made me sore.

Just curious to see if anyone else seems to feel the same way.

I am 39 years old, good health, love to be moving, so this has been hard.

Your body has been through great trauma. Please don't hold your recovery against it. We all heal differently and have different post-op experiences. One who did not experience an allergy and vomitting will likely settle in a bit easier. Everything I've read tells me that this too shall pass. It will get easier. We must believe this.

I am almost a month out, and am getting on okay, but suffer extreme fatigue by the end of the work day and struggle to stay awake while driving home. It is horrible! I am choosing to believe this is only temporary. Wishing you WELL, dear.
