    I am driving today ? so 8 days PO! When I booked my 7 day appt though, I asked if I could drive to the appt and they said no! The nurse said last night, that as long as you can emergency stop and you have decent range of movement, then it should be fine from 7 days!! Xx

    @mrssheppard2be I felt like that the first couple of days just because of how tight my chest felt, I reckon your strapping isn’t helping as it is probably still really tight! One more sleep and it will be off and hopefully you will feel loads better xx

    I saw the nurse 6 days post op and she said I was fine to drive as long as it’s a small car, so I’ve been driving each day from 7 days post op. It did hurt and was uncomfortable at first I’m not going to lie but I was ok and couldn’t cope without driving any longer 🙂 xx
