I’m 6WPO in a few days. My surgeon follow up is in a couple days so I’m sure he’ll give me some indication of what’s to come too, but how did you approach the “official” lifting of restrictions?

I’ve never been pain free over these last 6 weeks, always some nerve discomfort but it’s definitely reduced in severity and my overall function has increased. But I’m still not in the “feeling so good I need to remind myself not to do too much” - my body has had pretty clear signals whenever I’ve pushed too far.

Which leads me to my Q: I know the 6 week mark isn’t a magical free for all for anyone, but particularly for any of you who have experienced ongoing nerve or muscular pain, how did you approach 6W onwards?
