Over the last few days I’ve been a bit up and down. The pain level increased so I am now taking 150mg morning and evening of the modified release tramadol. My jelly legs seem to be worsening as well, although I did manage to make it through the one hour puppy class without my stick today – just. That said, we don’t exactly walk around a huge amount, but it is an hour of standing. The rest of the day has been pretty hectic as we have been getting ready for a family gathering for my 50th birthday tomorrow. I had constant nagging to take it easy, but I still suspect I did too much and I’ve been pretty wiped out this evening.
I got a letter from the hospital today to say that the follow-up appointment that was booked with the surgeon for early August has been brought forward to Monday 19th June. Presumably this is as a result of the registrar asking for me to be seen by one of Mr S’s team when I came in on Tuesday.
