    Thank you sisterpat and hawk2go. I must admit I do feel better if I don't try to do too much. I was a little teary today but nothing like earlier in the week. I am worried about returning to work next month as I don't want to be a blubbering wreck falling asleep at the keyboard.

    Hi dogwalker2, I had my op in Wales. I am feeling brighter today probably because I actually had a full night of uninterrupted sleep - the first since my op.

    Thank you all so much for your positive comments . It is nice to know that I can have a rant here and not be judged. It is exhausting trying to put a brave face on in front of family as they are not used to me being out of action. Having a more positive day today . Thank you everyone xxx

    Thank you for your message. My pain is quite well controlled during the day but I have not yet tried to reduce the codeine and paracetamol combo. I had gradually reduced the liquid morphine and had not taken any for 4 days but last night I had to take some as knee was very painful. At least I...
