What kind of cleaning? I did light cleaning at a week out, like I used a stick-vac on my hardwoods. I'm 4 weeks out now and still haven't used a real vacuum. At a week out I could do dishes and fold laundry. Bending to pick things up wasn't going to happen.

Just take it easy. Maybe do one small task and then rest.

Yes Im going to try light cleaning Im just bored and my fiance he doesnt help cleaning I have to fight for him to do soemthing!!!.ughhhjj

You can dust etc. I understand being bored. I was bored out of my mind, but I let that boredom get to me and I ended up overdoing it. So be careful and don't exhaust yourself. You are running on air at this point.

Don't you have any sit down hobbies you can do? I love to do coloring and bead work and know I will be busy during my recovery doing those things as I will also have my gallbladder taken out. As for the color it is the hottest adult activity for relieving stress and boredom. I got into coloring after reading about it in the June Parade Newspaper. I turned that joy into becoming a coloring book consultant and love helping others find the Joy in Coloring. If you have markers or colored pencils I have lots of free coloring pages I can send you. Just email me.

However if you really want to clean just stick to the light housekeeping as your still healing and need to be careful.
