My doctor used twilight sleep so I was good to go after a few hours.

I went home about an hour after it was done. My surgeon just said not to drive for 24 hrs.

Hi:

Had mine last week and because of the drugs they use to make you more comfortable you can't do anything that takes full attention for the rest of the day.

When I got home I had some lunch and then laid down to take a nap. It was more than a nap. I slept soundly for 4 hours! Best sleep I've had in years!

Good luck!

They told me not to drie for 16 hours. I was perfectly fine after about an hour. I don't think you'll be out of it all day. My faux husband had his and reacted the same way.

I had it Thursday morning, I slept pretty much all day. Friday I felt really weird all day but was ok. Last night I was cold and clammy, had a bad head ache, just felt like something was off.

Today my stomach hurts like someone was poking around in it.

Has this happened to anyone else?
