Hes now been home 2 days and Im wonderign in medical terms what he should and shouldnt do as he is keen to start pottering and go for short walks and my mother (80) is wanting him to basically sit and do nothing. I know it depends on his general health etc but in medical terms what is the usual advoce (his very first nurse pre op said he should be up and about and back to normal in days but I relaise she didnt know he woudl have that strssful experience? I kust want to advic=se forma a position of knowledge thankyou
You father had night terror because of his condition. I think he can resume basic activities in 7-10 days and normal activities can take another week to resume. It depends on the comfort level of your father.
