    I bet you will. Being active can't but help you in your recovery. I assume you're having it done laproscopically (sp)? Should be a quick recovery, just don't do more than they tell you and injure yourself

    Yup, lap. Anywhere from 2-4 tiny incisions. And I will definitely not attempt anything without doctor's permission. They went to college longer than I did!

    From what I've read that's part of the problem, you feel better than you actually are and some people end up over doing it. That's great though that you do feel so well!

    Ovarian cysts...experience?

    Yup. I'm going to start watching Breaking Bad so that I'll be too occupied!

    I'm glad it went well. Now, go watch TV for the next few days and heal!
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    I'm feeling way better than expected, though having the same sort of #2 issues limewave did after her recent surgeries. Really wish the MOM would work faster!!

    That can be the most uncomfortable part. I used Miralax, a nurse friend recommended it.

    As soon as I can discontinue narcotics I will. I had this issue after fracturing my wrist, too. I was on a much stronger dose, then.

    I feel for you. I knew about the bathroom issue with me and narcotics too. I had a hysterectomy a couple of years ago and made them take out the pain meds when I woke up after surgery. After finally getting all that out of my system I made it just fine with motrin/tylenol over the next few days. I was surprised how they worked.
