POV: You survived your first full week back at work after endometriosis excision surgery… and this is what recovery really looks like. 😂 I officially made it through my first full week back to work after a month-long surgery leave, and whew… the post-op fatigue is NO joke. Every evening has looked pretty much the same: clock out, soak my aching body in a scorching hot bath, grab my heating pad, put on my weighted eye mask, and immediately take a cat nap before I can even think about making dinner or doing anything around the house. 😴 I knew recovering from endometriosis excision surgery would take time, but I didn’t expect the exhaustion to hit this hard after returning to work. My body is definitely reminding me that healing isn’t always a straight line. Right now, this little recovery routine is getting me through: 💛 Hot bath 💛 Heating pad on full blast 💛 Weighted eye mask (shoutout to @nodpodofficial) 💛 Emergency evening nap Thankfully, it’s finally the weekend, and I can focus on resting and recharging before doing it all over again next week. If you’ve had endometriosis excision surgery, how long did the fatigue last for you after returning to work? Please tell me this part doesn’t last forever! 😂👇 postoprecovery womenwithendometriosis surgeryrecovery chronicillnesslife chronicillnesssupport LTKselfcare LTKdayinmylife LTKHome
