Thanks for the response. By now, I've really slacked off on the pain meds. Now, I'm just dealing with only eating Soup for the next 2 and 1/2 weeks. Let me know how your first doctors visit goes when you go back. I go back 2 weeks post op. How about you?

How long were you "uncomfortable"? I'm still taking pain killers every 5 or 6 hours. It is the min. amount that I can take, but don't want to take them forever. BTW: I'm from South Carolina. I'm 46 and had surgery in South Carolna.

Thank you all for your responses. I had gallbladder surgery 3 years ago. I went to work (office) for an hour the next day (Friday) and was back at work full-time on Monday. I recovered very well. I believe I would be fine, but I am going to take y'alls advise and wait till November. My daughters wedding is a big to-do, so I will need all my strenght. Thanks so much, again.

Here are the details. My surgeons only operate on Tuesdays. The 29th of September is out. If I were to have the surgery on October 6th, how would I feel on October 24th at my daughters wedding? I do not care about what I can or cannot eat. I just want to be able to dance with my husband (her father). All comments or suggestions are helpful and much appreciated. FYI: I have a "back up" date planned for November 3rd, but I'd rather not wait that long.
