" A patient must <STRIKE>be</STRIKE> patient..."
David of Ohio is spot on.......truthfully, you need a good year to recover...this tells you why "slow and steady wins the race" is the perfect adage.....Odds are you did not get in the condition you are in overnight.........typically, the longer the pre-op problems, the slower the recovery, if you know this going in...it helps....also have your wife keep notes or a journal......if you keep a timeline or graph, you are far more likely to see steady improvements in small increments that are hard to notice when you are living it day to day.
As David says, "Listen to your body...Can't say that enough.........!!!!!
Best healing wishes,
Anita
