I have been ill on and off since january 2020 , when I say ill I mean more from cancer treatment and heart failure which is just another hurdle to deal with. I wanted to recovery as quickly as I could so made a point of trying to walk and do things for myself from the word go. I gave up pain relief in general fairly quickly as not required . I would walk every day or whenever I could and found this really helped with my recovery. I really cannot emphasize how much it has helped me recover after major surgery last year. The physiotherapist says I am doing great. The Cardiologist says my feet should be swollen up due to heart failure . Not impressed with that at all lol . The point I wish to make is just move if you want to recover quicker.
Totally agree too Min. A good daily walk during treatment, even during winter, was a huge physical and mental boost to me too and I’m sure it helped me to recover quicker than I would’ve otherwise. (But who knows.) Really pleased you’re doing well you trooper you!
