Hi Tanya

You will be fine, I understand the sense of nervousness, but it will disappear after the first few minutes.

I will be eager to read how you have gone.

What a lovely thing to go shopping by yourself, it is a big milestone that one for sure. Are you unaided?

Yes, it is nice to let someone pick uout a gift for themselves, your Mum must have been thrilled..

Chat tomorrow..

Hugs xx
 
Well the first day back at work is done and dusted. I am very weary tonight but feeling good and happy to be working again tomorrow. I know it will get easier as time goes by.
Sandy thank you so much for your support, just having someone who's been there and understands helps tremendously. :)

My mum did have a lovely day and picked herself a beautiful new watch.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Another milestone! Good for you and great attitude knowing each day will get easier. Take it slow and rest when you can.
 
Glad your first day back at work went well. I am sure every day you will be less and less tired. Happy for your accomplishment. -cathy
 
Hi Tanya

Good for you, so pleased work went well. Good that we have a public holiday tomorrow... Do I remember correctly that you are back part time on a phased return?

Absolutely another milestone getting back to work - well done girl :)

Hugs xx
 
Hi Diane, Cathy and Sandy,
Thanks for your words of encouragement. It's been good getting back into the swing of it slowly over the last 2 days.
Sandy I have returned to work on part time hours but it's the same hours I was doing prior to the op....I work 30 hours per week so it's really not much less then full time. I am planning on being back to normal hours by the start of the new financial year :)
You have a lovely day off tomorrow and we will definitely catch up soon
Hugs Tanya xx
 
Tanya

Congrats on the return to work. I will be heading there eventually and I can understand your misgivings. It's like starting all over again.

Trust everything will continue to go well.

Best of luck
 
Just thought I would pop in and say hello.....I have been back at work 2 weeks now (this week is my third week) and I'm now back to full time which is amazing as I hadn't been physically capable of full-time work for over a year prior to surgery.
I do find I still have bad days, days where sitting feels awkward and uncomfortable and then the next day is perfectly fine.....I think this seems weird but I'm sure it's normal. On the whole I feel fantastic and having this op was the best thing I ever did.
I hope everyone is doing well.
Take care Tanya xx :dancy::dancy:
 
Hi Tanya... Going to tag you, so you get this @Tanya40:

So pleased to hear all is going well at work. - fantastic... I figured it must be, because I hadn't heard from you at work :)

I am on leave this week, but still checking work emails in case you get to send me one... Sending lots of love xxx

Hey sandy, Ive been meaning to write your work email down and take it in with me but I keep forgetting! Everything has been crazy lately....I will do it now while I'm thinking of it :biggrin:
It feels good to be back at work, I feel normal again. One of the ladies I work with returned from holidays today and it's the first time I have seen her since before my op....she was stunned to see me walking normally with no aides and I don't even have a limp. Feels so good when people comment on how well it's going :yes 4:
I hope you are well sandy, I must check your thread and catch up.
Take care xx
 
Hi Tanya

I just jumped on before I settle down to watch a movie and saw that you are online.

I am so thrilled that all is going well for you and your recovery is also good. I too was pleased to get back to work. When one is home, it's so different, but when I returned to work it was like life was returning to normal.

We are at the beach house for the week. Heaps of work for hubby, but he seems to enjoy it. I think because he is doing it for us, a sense of achievement..

Once again, thrilled for you that all is going well and please do write to me at work that would be really nice :)

Take care xxxx
 
Hey Tanya, glad things are going so well for you. I am sure a little normalcy is a good thing. Good to hear how happy you are that you had this done. I'll get there sooner or later haha. Take care -Cathy
 
Well it's 3:30am and for the first time since having this surgery I'm in terrible pain. I haven't done anything different the pain just started out of the blue.... Initially I was thinking dislocation but I can stand and weight bear. It feels more muscular in the front of my thigh.....I just want it to go away so I can sleep :(
 
Tanya....sometimes pain does appear for no particular reason. When that happens you need to go back to resting and taking some type of pain medication.....the BoneSmart Cocktail works for some or you can go with your prescription pain meds as well for a short time.
 
Oh Tanya, I am so sorry you had a sleepless night.. No fun, that's for sure. Hope today, Friday was not a work day.

I have found that the more I move and get back into living, I get these weird pains in the muscle down the front of my thigh too.. I just ease back and take it easy for a few days and it goes.

Looks like a wet weekend Tanya, it is freezing here... Brrrrrrr !

Take care, sending big hugs xxxxx
 
Thanks Jamie and sandy, it's reassuring to come here and know that everyone understands what your dealing with.

Sandy today was a work day but I called in sick and took myself off to the doctor. He confirmed that is muscular and to take it easy for a few days! He has suggested an anti inflammatory for the next 3 days as well.
Definitely looking like a wet weekend here....a good excuse to rest up with some craft in front of the T.V :)
Stay warm Sandy.
Take care big hugs xxxxx
Tanya
 
Oh that's good news Tanya. It will settle down with some R&R and of course some pleasurable activities, like your craft... Don't forget the comfort food.. Chocolate is good :)

Hugs xx
