Share review of Mr James Kirkby-Bott
The whole procedure went as explained, and the Nursing care immediately after the procedure was excellent, however, I think I overdid things in the first week of recovery and played at a Gig on Day 5 and this was a mistake!
Very uncomfortable in bed for the first 72 hours.
I also made the mistake of easing off the pain relief too quickly within the first week. I quickly went back onto it for a few more days and it was a noticeable help.
In retrospect, if I have followed the advice given more closely I would have had a better outcome over the first one or two weeks. Some two months down the line everything has healed as it should and I feel absolutely fine - I am back Gigging on a regular basis.
Going "Private" at my age, 78, was an excellent decision!
