Shortness Of Breath

Today I am exactly one week post op. I am feeling pretty good but I noticed I feel winded pretty easily. Like last night taking my kids upstairs and putting them to bed i had to keep stopping to catch my breath. I never had this issue before. Did anyone else feel this after surgery?

Me too. I am a week out and feeling winded after a little exertion. Otherwise I feel pretty darn good! Think we just need to get moving more. I am going to do more this weekend. Try to up my stamina as I am back to work on Monday.

Well you are lucky you took a week off of work. I had my surgery on Thursday and went back to work the following Monday. I dont know what made me think that was enough time! I was miserable up until yesterday. But I feel fine shortness of breath is my only complaint. However, I do think I need to work on my Water intake a little more.

I was tempted to take less time but had the time so said what the heck. Sorry you had to go back so soon. I hope you are getting enough sleep.
