7 days post op

I cannot believe just how tiring it is recovering from an operation. I slept well last night, had a lie in this morning and then fell asleep again after breakfast! By 11 am I began to feel normal again, but after just about 20 minutes I was feeling tied again. Argh!

Discovered that turning the front door key is not a smart move 7 days post op - sharp shooting pain down my arm. Lesson learnt. Generally I am getting little pain in my shoulder, though I am of course still taking painkillers. Every now and then I make a wrong move and get a twinge so I try to keep my arm in the sling when moving about just to limit those moves. Painkillers run out in a few days which will be interesting.
