Misty Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Hi Claudiamor, Welcome to the site. You have done very well to get back to work so soon, and wonderful to hear that you are feeling good. Take it easy though, it's still very early days. Tell us more about your experience. My SAH was New Years Eve with 2 coils on 3 January 2017. The hospital have told me that will be clearing me to drive on my next appointment with the consultant on 22 March but I have an appointment with the Dr next week and hoping that he will be able to clear me as it's driving me mad being stuck at home. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudiamor Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Hello Julie! I also had two coils put in on 1/26/17. I was released from the hospital on 2/3/17 and cleared to go back to work on 2/23/17. I'm 44 years old and have two young kids at home (3 and 5). I feel like it's a miracle that I am here and I am taking it easy breezy at work. I'm so glad I found this group. I'm from Chicago. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misty Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 HI Claudiamor, Fantastic that you made it, and by the sounds of it without any major issues, especially since you have 2 small children, that's wonderful news, and you sound very positive which will help you a lot. I find this site such a huge help, in many ways, as any queries can be answered, and any problems can be halved. I have made a really good recovery, initially was extremely worried about the future, but after a post from Macca all the negativity has gone, and I'm just happy to be in one piece and able to get on with life with a more positive attitude. Wishing you all the very best. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
