First night post op Started by: Rebecca Moore

Not a chance Hun I was up and shopping they day I came out of hospital but there was no way I could of drove x

Hey Hun. I was fine day of surgery and could life my arms the second I woke up I was really bad I couldn’t even stand up properly so I don’t think driving home is ideal. Could u not take a friend or something to stay over locally or at the hospital? X

You can be a passenger. I stayed overnight and had a 3 hour drive back. It’s uncomfortable regardless hun. I tried a pillow like some of the girls suggested so I could wear a seat belt, but that was not happening. In the end I didn’t wear one. Everybody is diff. I had unders so was going to be more uncomfortable than overs. You could always ask for your pain relief before you leave so it can kick in. Thinking back to how I was the night of the surgery. I was out for most of it ? xx

Rebecca I’ve had a notification that you have mentioned me but the forum is not taking me to what you have said! Add me and private message me xxx

Sorry Hun I took it as you was doing the driving! My hospital was about an hour away and I just relaxes the seat back and put a pillow between the seatbelt and yourself you should be fine as your coming out of hospital they would of given you all your meds before so you should be as pain free as you can be at that point! Just ask your partner to be more aware of pot holes and try not to slam on and you should be fine xx
