Post op advice please!! Started by: Anonymous

I couldn’t wash my hair I booked in for a blow dry at a salon instead of having to bend over the bath and wash it that way! I left it a week after my op bearing in mind I was sick all in my hair after coming round ?! Getting dressed I found okay I just wore casual button up shirts and leggings the hardest thing was flushing the toilet for me! If you’ve got a push button one you’ve got no chance mine is a handle one so I had to do it with my foot! Saying all this I had a really quick recovery I was shopping and out of the house day after surgery! I think what you will struggle with is carrying your uni bag as I can imagine it’s quiet heavy? Being back at uni would prop so be okay as you will be sat down most of the time? I found I got aches and pains when I stayed in bed the more in was up n was active I didn’t hurt! Sorry I’ve rambled on a bit but hope I’ve helped you out x

I was day 6 till I could even get ready and put make up on, I had no energy and I could hardly lift my arms
