Go me! I was in at hospital at 730 and operated on at 8;15. In a cuple of hours i was up and readig. Walking around to get rid of some wind. No pain from the operation. just my bak pain as i was not allowed mypils pre surgery. that was taken care of mmediately. M wonderful nurse tina gave ma a swig of oromorph and I was great. Drinking all afternoon.
I ws ready to leave by 3:30 with full insstructions to keep me going till my fill i 6 weeks.
Today, I just feel a but gassy. no diferent from any other laporascopic investigation. I have 3 tiny hasf inch scars and one about an ince. doubt they will even look like scars. I use dermatix on my scars and they usually all but dieappear. arhica is good for bruising.
good luck
