My recovery was ok but I suppose everyone is different. I had 500cc unders last Tuesday and I was quite sore on the Tuesday and Wednesday but by the Thursday I was pottering around the house ok. I have 3 kids so i didnt really have a choice. I had my dressings off yesterday morning and then went up to whitehaven from Manchester to for work. My partner drove me but I was ok. I’m driving myself to work today. I have read things about peoples recovery being a lot tougher than mine tho. Good luck with your surgery xc

I had 315 unders on Monday and I really do feel fine, I’ve been up and about fine these last few days! In way less pain than I thought, I do keep alarms to make sure I’m keeping on top of pain meds xx

bra for 6 weeks. i was better on day 3. after week was nearly normal

I had my surgery in the evening and went on a dog walk (I didn’t hold the lead) the following day! May not have been a great idea but I felt fine to do this, was nice to get out and stretch. Just had to walk slowly as I had tightness. By day 3 I felt completely normal apart from tightness and was out and about reasonably comfortably – I just didn’t bring a bag out with me so my arms were free x
