Recovering

Life continues to be “subdued” while I’m in the “convalescent” phase. There’s pain management of course (coming along OK, I think), but there are also significant lifestyle constraints while my body recuperates.    One of them is sleeping, but bear with me if I don’t go into all the details.    Suffice to say that some aspects are coming along better than others.

Lots of support and information about pain management

I think that the care I’ve received has been very good.   I was sent off to a couple of different specialties before the procedure, so I was fully informed as to what to expect, and things have in fact been in line with what I was told would be the case.    However, the mental trauma has been greater than I anticipated.    Family support has been great which has helped, and it’s been nice to have had a couple of rank discussions with friends, but at the end of the day, it’s sometimes been hard at times to stay positive about the whole thing.
