Hey Saffy,
Hope you are doing well and are surviving through the NHS food
Hope it's all gone well and you recover from the post op stuff soon. I had my permanent put in 2 and a half weeks ago. You have been through so much xx
Thinking of you

Got a wheelchair to use today. Gosh it was great.to.be able to go a good.way down the corridor without having to stop through pain. Getting leg brace fitted tomorrow. Got to have another operation on a prolapse due to my having to.push down so much to wee. Never mind.

The stim is covering well but have to admit I still feel the.sciatic pain but its a blessing to have This lovely massage feeling. Love to.all ...

By the way, I felt your prayers. Thank you. Xx

Heart Thanks for update!
It's SO good to hear that you are out of bed moving down the halls!
You've waited soooo long for this....it just HAS to work for you! We'll all keep the faith that a tweak here and there will set you up right.
Meanwhile, just get the rest you need and let the surgical pain ease up. I pray that the scar tissue won't play tricks on your healing and that this goes smoothly.

When will you need to be getting this other surgery?

Caring, and Caring some more,
Rae

Hi Rrae, its a prolapse so need to be referred to another department. Luckily our private health care should cover this so I can be seen when I'm ready.

Getting fitted for foot brace today.

Still smiley

HOME. No foot brace as the department forgot about me and it would mean me staying in till Monday .. So instead my GP is going to refer me.

Aching seriously from the journey but so glad to be home. Have so many stories to tell ...

Love LOVE, Karen. X x
