4 weeks down the line - Beware - graphic pictures

Less than one minute read time.

Well it's now 4 weeks since the operation.  I have had a proper bath every day since Saturday.  I have soaked the wound and now moisturise it often during the day.  It is tender and I am struggling to walk properly unassisted so physio was recommended.  Guess what - end of June is the soonest I can get.  I tried my BUPA cover and there are no BUPA registered physiotherapists on IOM! Looks like I'll have to foot the bill.  No free prescriptions, no physio - why do I live here?  Anyway here goes - especially for Peter.....   I remove the dressing for as long as possible during the day and then wrap it up at myself to go to bed - just so I can protect it.  I think it's doing pretty well considering how it looked 4 weeks ago.  Me too - I'm much more positive - just wish I wasn't so tired!  Anyway, hope this doesn't put you off your tea!  Best of luck to all those waiting for results, and keep smiling!
