Trying to gather information about what being in bed 6 months can do to your health and mental health?
For my gp 😔😬

What does your g.p. need it for, they will know the risks. You can get a lot of info f you type in complications of extended bed rest.

Was recently bed bound during the whole of my pregnancy. If you still need info let me know x

Prolonged bed rest is bad

It can result in 'deconditioning' - a process which results in loss of mobility, muscle atrophy, increased risk of thromboembolism and psychological dependency.

Can also lead to pneumonia and pulmonary embolism ( same process as a dvt). The risks of just laying in bed are great which is why hospitals get you straight up and out after ops.
