Stairs

How soon after getting banded :bandit were you able to climb up stairs?

My home has three floors. By necessity I would have to climb up a flight of about 12 steps to get to my bedroom. How soon will I be able to do this or will I have to sleep in the family room?:omg:

You should be ok after a few days if you take it easy. Each day will get better and better. I slep in my recliner for a few days till it was easier to get in and out of bed.

thanks loser28

So I guess I'll have to start the thought of sleeping in the family room for a couple of days....LOL

Kicking my husband and kids out so I can get some R&R is going to be a more difficult task!!:phanvan

I thought it was easier to let he recliner push you up when putting the leg rest down. I slept on it for the first 5-7 days. I didn't want to think about getting out the bed. Each day was better.

Yeah, I slept on a recliner, and the day after surgery, I had to walk up a flight of stairs just to get into my house. It took a while though!
