The good news is that it will get better. The bad news is that it will take up to two years and one day you will wake and realise you no longer have the problem. It didn't take the two years and then one day his words came back to me because it had gradually improved until one day, ecce!, I suddenly realised that I had no pain.

I spoke too soon about being able to lie on 'that' side. I tried it last night. A while yet I fear but at least I don't wake with a squeal when I turn over.
