I felt a little sore, the inly thing that really bothered me was that it felt like i had a concret brick inside mine felt heavy and stiff, i ohine ny dr and they said thats normal. I didnt find it was too painful (not even close to my endo pain)
After a few days i was feeling ok ironing clothes for the kids and making them tea getting them ready for school x
After i wone up from the laparscopy i felt really sick, they gave ne a sick ess injection and i felt fine.also i couldnt stop burping, doctors said that normal because if the tubes. I had to have blood thining injections because if family history they stung for abit.
Theres no need to worry,i know thats easier said than done.
Good luck x

Well after the op you will feel sore in the abdomen and the incisions will be sore, but my worst memory is the trapped gas feeling which for me felt like a sword was coming out of my shoulder. This trapped gas feeling is very common and the only thing you can do is gently walk around a bit to move the gas. This article has some good tips for getting prepared for surgery and tips for recovery afterwards https://www.endo-resolved.com/laparoscopy_advic... Hope it helps
