Hey,

so I’m due to have surgery on the 21st but the area itself has been getting more sore and I just checked and it’s now started bleeding from a little split and is really sore.

Im now just on the sofa resting it but wondered is this normal?  Also I’m meant to be in work tomorrow and it’s a very physically active job but now thinking I should give it a time to rest?

any advice welcome thank you xx

  • I think you need to rest.  I know we always put work first, but if it’s now affecting you then it’s time to listen to your body.  

    I would call in sick, speak to your team, do you have MacMillan nurses you can contact?  And ask their advice.  It’s pointless making yourself more poorly, as it could cause a delay in the operation x
