I’m hoping to have my boobs done in April & am booking 2 weeks off work. Does anyone know when you can start driving again? I’m a care worker so I do drive around for my job xxxxx
Couple of weeks bbe properly, but Its down to individual recovery you could be driving 7+ days post op as I know a few who have after a week, just see how you feel. Xxx
At my pre-op consultation they said two weeks, as long as you’re comfortable doing an emergency stop xxx
Okay, thanks guys 🙂 xxxxx
I drove today 11 days po. it was ok, but I tried to avoid going into reverse as some girls said that it hurt them. 2 wks should be fine. r u having overs or unders? overs usually heal quicker. 🙂
I started driving yesterday and I’m 11 days post op but I’ve had partials. My friend had an uplift and couldnt drive for over two weeks so it depends what your having. X
Hey I had overs and drove after 1 week but it was really uncomfortable, couldn’t change into fifth gear properly and turning the wheel steering around corners. Bumps and corners are the worst! It just depends how you feel.. i felt fine driving after 2 weeks, just the odd sore twinge 🙂 Xxx
I’m meeting Mr Singh a week Friday, really want overs as I don’t wanna be in too much pain :/ xxxxx
Just added you Polina, that okay? xxxxx
I am 7 days post op today! The nurse said I can drive from today! But I don’t quite feel ready yet.. Think I will wait a couple more days!
They are still bit sore and tender and just want to be safe then sorry! Think it will be changing the gears and hand break that takes more force and grip xxx
I think it’s about judging yourself how you feel! Don’t want to cause any strain or damage. X
Hope this makes sense 🙂 xxx
Yeah that’s true, thanks xxxx
Hi i had overs and drove 9 days PO, it was very uncomfortable, found it difficult to change gear and reversing, ive not drove since and I’m 2 weeks PO today. I was quite sore the next day too. Everyone is different but just be careful xxx
Thanks Louise xxxx
i think it’s 2 weeks, i didn’t drive for ages though as i had no need to and i have a Clio so the gears are funny!xx
Oh god I have just drove and I am now paying for it! 7 days po and I didn’t realise how much it would take it out of me 🙁 I guess it is down to the individual but I am not driving for at least another week after that experience meeeh!! xx
i drove from day 5 but was rather uncomfortable (not impossible) then on day 7 drove to London ( 2hrs) for taking off the strapping………wth was i thinking hahah……xx
oh my god st! I only drove for half an hour and I feel like ive had a workout! jesus it’s a joke! I feel very sorry for myself right now xx
Oh God :/ xxxx
