Mopey, sore, sad, demoralized -- 5-1/2 weeks post-op

The possibility of things changing as I get into routine could be on target.  

We'll see -- Thank you for respondiing and for the good thoughts.

sorry you are in such pain and in   such a funk.  i was that way after wls. i feel a lot of pain now and the pain meds don't really seem to help that much. i hope u do well in class tomorrow.  hang in there.  it has to get better, doesn't it?  vick

It wasn't until nearly 10-12 weeks before I felt "normal". I would say I was good to go for most stuff at 8-9 weeks. that's when I started to walk straight again too. No way was I back to anything at 6 weeks though. I was working at 3.5 weeks but was exhausted at the end of every day (desk job and sitting on pillows, etc). Went swimming (indoors, no sun) at 8 weeks. evil step kid kicked me in my groin incision HARD (under water) on accident - cried for about 30 minutes, but no perm harm done as the incision itself was already closed and healed, was just very tender.

Stay strong! Teach from the desk chair with a laser pointer and taser gun for crowd control :-)

Good Luck!
