Hi Everyone,
I know this probably sounds crazy but I am feeling very anxious about my back pain after surgery. I know it is early days yet but I just wanted some reassurances from some of you that have already been there! My back pain feels worse than before surgery, I have been taking things very slow, I have been doing a lot of resting and walking 2 or 3 times a day for 15 minutes each. My stomach incision is still sore but have had it looked at and Dr said is healing just fine. I am finding it very difficult to get comfortable in bed at night. I have a bunch of pillows and sit almost upright, I can't wait until I feel comfortable enough to lay down on my side, what time frame has anyone else noticed for this?
Anyhow I am sorry about the whine, but am feeling a little nervous.
Sharon
