Was wondering how long peeps kept their sexy stockings on after surgery. ? I've took mine off for washing n wondered how long I needed them on for? I'm taking two weeks anti coagulants, so is it for the two weeks?

From my recent slash 'n hoik I had to keep my stockings on for 3 weeks. They gave me 2 pairs so I could wear one and wash one. They were very warm even though I had to get my husband to put them on me every day.
 
I left mine on a week.. I was mobile enough and on anti clotting injections but also they were causing my feet to be freezing cold as they kept creasing at my ankles and couldn't stop it happening and it would wake me up through the night being too right around my ankles :/

I'm told I need to wear mine for 4 weeks but can honestly say that I won't be able to commit to this. They hurt and crease in my ankles! X
 
I wasn't to,d how long for but just for a long journey or flying in recent future, they need to go on x

Hi gang. I'm due to have my bypass on Monday 24th Feb. Only found out last Tuesday afternoon to already lost a day and a half of pre-op diet time.
I keep thinking about this time next week and looking at my watch all the time. I've been told to check in at 1.00 pm so I have no idea what time I'll get done.
My knees are knocking to some tune now. I keep having visions of me running for it when they're walking me down to theatre or showing myself up becoming hysterical and hanging on to the door frame.
It's great to read your stories though and I'm so glad you've all come through safely xx

Hi Janey

I just had my bypass 24hrs ago and can't believe how well I actually feel. But rewind to getting myself settled on the strange theatre bed my whole body shook I am not kidding. I got so cold and freaked out. All I can say is you will be well looked after and it's no where near as bad as you imagine. You will be fine. Good luck hon x
