    Hi Crashe - been there, done that, but thank god for me it was without the infection/pneumonia.

    Take VERY GOOD care of yourself - it is a major operation and took me a long time to get back to strength. Don't ride your bike too soon - I couldn't believe how weak I was for a long time afterwards.

    Thanks Lynda.....

    I took painkillers last night as I was going to bed, and I managed to sleep for 7 hours... I forgot to take them the night before and man was I uncomfortable...

    Yep I will only get back on the bike when Dr's say I can and it will only be short rides like 10km trips for a day or so and then build up the km's slowly......

    Wot?! 8 weeks? Harden up. You'll do it in 54 days if you put your mind to it. GWS lass
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Been there, done that myself too. Had the big cut, not the laproscopic version. This makes a big difference in your recovery - which was it for you?


    I'm going to contradict Lynda's experience & tell you that I was on the bike within 3 weeks & back to work at the 3 week mark, feeling about 95% recovered. Mind you, I didn't have your complications to deal with.

    Get your rest (nana naps are great, eh? ) but don't forget to get yourself moving too. I'm a great believer in mind over matter, and a positive outlook towards your recovery will make a big difference. Believe me.

    Nup this is a strict 8 weeks of being off the bike...
    If I ride sooner than I am allowed to..... then I could do more damage to my insides. This is the one time I am obeying dr's orders.

    I had the BIG CUT.... and I asked my gyno and she stated 8 weeks.
    Its something to do with lifting the bike up off the stand and doing damage in side..... I aint allowed to lift a thing for 6 weeks.
    Im allowed to drive my car after 3 weeks.

    Hey Crashe, hope you recover fully and get back to riding (and motorcycling ) as soon as you can!

    A gentle PT - 8 weeks = 56 days minus 2 days at least since op. Doesn't sound so long that way. You'll be fine

    I'll never complain about my hands again. All the best for a speedy recovery.
