Still Making Progress

I haven’t created a new post in a while because I don’t have much news to share. As they say, no news is good news! I’m still progressing with my recovery and feeling better each week. I’m taking less Tylenol (typically only one dose a day), I’m trying to get outside and walk more to help my balance (but it’s still freezing out) and the pressure, swelling and funny noises in my head continue to get better.

I was planning to return to work on March 24, but I’ve decided to extend it to April 24 to ensure I’m feeling 100 percent when I return. I admit that I underestimated the length of my recovery prior to the surgery – always an optimist. My work has been great about the extra time I’m taking. Everyone at BBY has been SO supportive – they are even still sending us meals! I can’t tell you how much we appreciate the support! I have my follow-up MRI at Mayo on April 21, and I’m praying they’ll give me the green light to resume all activities at that time.
