Yes, definitely. I wasn’t comfortable driving till about eight weeks, but I do think the worst of the pain was the first two or three weeks. I started paying attention and realized every so many days that I was feeling better that I was a couple days before. So that was helpful to at least know that it gets better. I still have some numbness under my ribs, and I had robotic surgery so I think maybe it’s worse if they have to open you up. Someone told me it takes the body a full year to completely heal, so that made me a little easier on myself. I kept thinking what’s wrong with Me that I was still feeling pain. Took close to three months before I was comfortable wearing a bra again, though! Ugh. Lol
