Hi Cheryl,

* I'm 7 weeks post-op ( #5). This time it took several weeks to heal. Much different from the last surgery I had. And I know how frustrating the healing period can be. I think it's harder and harder for your body to recuperate after each surgery. And I'm sure it's very normal to feel so irritated at others for not being able to understand how you feel. All I can say is rest, rest and come here to vent. We really do understand on this board. Sorry you're here-but this is one of the best resources you could have found for yourself as far as information and support go. * Hang in there. Sending prayers and good wishes, Gloria :)
