All the best to you! They should be giving you a "back to work" interview and making allowances for your op. I'm sure you'll be fine, if a little tired at the end of the day!

Good luck, that was one thing working for the NHS you got regular meetings while off sick with managers & a rep, appointments with occupational health & a robust phased return.
I hope all goes well for you Lilli, if it becomes too much go back to the GP, your health is too important.

Good for you Lillileaf - I know the first day will be difficult but hopefully tomorrow can only get better. You mustn't overdo things no matter how much you want to get done, and don't let your boss push you either!

I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Hope it went OK  :)

Don't be surprised if you feel absolutely cream crackered for a few days or a couple of weeks.  Even 12 weeks off takes a bit of re-orientation back into, and your brain will be working extra hard to catch up - even before you take into account everything else.

Be kind to yourself  :)
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

Well i did get a days work done,and it was a full day 8-5,phased return, interviews,not a chance,did only stand for 1 hour doing my work so that was ok instead of 5hrs.
The exercise bike i bought has helped alot that has really put some flexability in the operated leg,i use it twice a day,i did 9.3 km last night it helps get the knots out and stops the stiffness setting in.
Thank you for all your support and kind thoughts.Lillileaf
