Update on my leg


Its almost 2 weeks since my operation and my stump is healing well. Tommorow i go in for chemotherapy which will be milder than the chemo i was on before the amputation. Also i will be in hospital for less time which is good. The pain in my wound is mild now but the phantom pain and pins and needles from the nerve damage caused by the operation is starting to piss me off. Its a very strange sensation not really pain but a electric shock sort of sensation,

Last week i had my first physio which was good and i did more than i expected. I walked on a temporary false limb and a video of this can be found on my facebook site. Im pretty fed up to i cant wait to get my prosthetic so i can walk and get about without having to really on my family to do the simplest things for me like get me a drink or get me my tablets or get me my breakfast. Be good to be independant once again.

Bye for now
Matt
