Ouch 2 weeks out
Hi, I am new to ADR support Community. I am 2 weeks out of surgery and am still having a lot of pain. Lower back area. I am wondering how normal this is. I am told for some people it is a slow recovery. I am trying to take it as easy as possible, but is hard. I am a very active person, so this is frustrating. I think I just need a little reassurance all is normal. The surgery did take a little longer than was expected due to my main leg artery not it the normal position. I was also wondering if I could take longer to heal because of this.
Thanks for any help
