Progressing well

Been a while since I last posted, but happy to say that physically I am progressing well.  My increase in activity has really helped with the weight loss, now at my lowest weight this century!  I'm no longer classed as obese, although obviously a long way to go.


I've also started attending gigs again, one of my favourite past times which I hadn't been able to do since early this year.  This month I have seen Brian Fallon, Lacuna Coil and Bring Me The Horizon.  Many more gigs planned over the coming months.

Slow road to recovery

Was discharged a week ago from hospital after the 2nd part of my ALIF, which involved a posterior operation to add screws from the other side of the ALIF last month. The operation went well and I was out of hospital the following day.  The subsequent pain was more than I expected, perhaps because I had such an easy ride after the previous operation I thought this would be the same. Most of the pain is in my right leg, even though most the pain before the operations was in the left leg.  I am hoping it is just the result of inflammation around the operation error causing pressure on the nerves and it will reduce in the coming weeks.  I am able to walk okay, but it can be painful sitting down or bending. Anyhow, I'm staying optimistic.  It is early days before I need to start worrying that the operation may not have been 100% successful in reducing the pain.

Week 6 - Going well

6 weeks since the 2nd part of my surgery.  I'm doing well, most days managing 10,000 steps a day.  I would have never have thought I would get my mobility back so quickly.  I am still in some discomfort particularly when sitting down, but am doing well and have started phasing my return to work.
