7 week Post Op Check Up for Posterior Repair, SSF & Perineum Repair

My urogynaecologist was very pleased with my progress, she said I need to be careful for another 2 weeks as I still have stitches (deeper stitches will last much longer) and there is still some discharge. No heavy lifting, ever.

I have to say the whole process has been much easier than I was expecting. I know it's still early days (this is my second prolapse op) but I hope if I continue to be careful it will be my last!

This forum has been so helpful and some of you (you know who you are!) have kept me sane over the last 3 years.

I wish you all a happy and healthy 2018. Xx 

Thank you for posting this x 

i am a newbie on here and am so glad I found this site.

i am 8 days post op and am feeling rather miserable so reading posts like this really lifts my spirits 

thank you again xx 

Hi Jacqueline,

I hope your recovery goes well.  I must admit my family have been amazing, I couldn't have done it without them. Thank you for your kind words. Xx

That’s great news , I go back to work this week but doctor gave me a 6 weeks amended duties , as he says it takes a good 3 months to feel 100% , the only thing I find is I get up on the morning feeling like I could move a mountain lol then after doing bits nothing heavy I get achy  in my groin , we want  miracles don’t we lol not used to doing little always on the go , all the best for 2018 and have a lovely Christmas 🎄 x

Hi Margaret,

Luckily I work part time in an office so although stressful at times it's not physical. It's difficult especially when there is a lot to do to rest but your health is the most important thing. Wishing you well. X 

Fantastic news! Take care - onwards and upwards. Happy New ayear to you too 😊
