Two week post OP visit - Tomorrow

I go back to hospital tomorrow for my visit to my consultant. It will be 14 days since my operation. To be honest i have mixed feelings about the visit. I want to know how my leg is healing and to make sure everything is moving in the right direction. I was told very little information after my op and the nurse in charge did not give away too much either. But, I suppose like everyone else on here I and a little nervous to find out whats going on inside my cast.

I have, I think, been doing ok so far. I have had very little pain since day 2 of the operation and have been sitting with my leg up all the while. I have slept very well considering and I have even managed a couple of ’seated showers’ with my waterproof cast protector on. The last couple of days I have had a twitching around the scar area which i can only describe as the feeling I have had before when stitches are ready to come out. Even in three weeks my leg has lots a lot of muscle tome in the quad and the temporary half casting I have had since the op is much looser now.

I hope tomorrow is good news and it will srart me off onto another 6-12 weeks of recovery and I will be keeping my fingers crossed as much as I can. I will also try and get some photos of the leg if I get chance so I can put on here.
