You know that sore stiffness and heavy exhaustion you feel the next day when you've pushed yourself too far in a run or played a tough sports match? Well that's how I feel every dayand no, I haven't been doing any of th e above! Yes I have started my rehab program and my body has been left reeling. Seems it really doesn't like doing a few lunges, step ups, weights and stretches. I mean I'm quite happy to feel like this if I have actually raised my heart rate but it is truly ridiculous if you could see the tiny exercises I am actually doing!
Anyway, slowly moving forward. I'm back behind the wheel and it is surprisingly pretty comfortable, much more so than after the first op. I'm still not driving far but it's a very good step. I started back at work on Wednesday and did almost 3 hours and then the same on Friday. It was great seeing everyone again and catching up on news but as expected the first day was pretty rough. I spend most of Wed night and Thursday sleeping and in bed, exhausted and so sore. This happened after the first op too so was not unusual - this week with 3 mornings will be the real test to see if it is any better.

I hope all is going well Amy. I'm thinking of changing my job as I'm not going so well where I am, so might have some more time free if you want company... xo
