no not really. I was in and out of the surgery center in like 3 hours./ they signed me in took me back had me change into a loveley(note sarcasm) gown put in an IV told me how things were going to happen, gave me my one sip of water to take 2 pills for anxiety and nausia( appearantly standard sio you don't get sick after surgery) took me back into surgery someone sain we are putting the anasthetic in your IV now then I woke up back in recovery 45 min later was told wha I needed to do for the next few days/ weeks then was let dress ? with help from my wife. was give a scrip for 2 loratab 7.5's every 4 hours for 5 days. and went home. I was able to walk pretty well on my own but I did shuffle around Like an 80 year old for a couple days. the pills kept me asleep about 1.5 to 2 hour of every 4 hours but I realy didn't need them that much i slept through taking them and waitedd till my next dose was do to take them a few times and the last day only took one at a time so I would have them for an extra day just in case. after the first week though I was independant except I couldn't life a half case of pop.lol! but I was cleaning and cooking for myself standing and doing as I pleased pretty much. I did need help get up for a few days or had to be extra carefull doing it myself. and it hurt to cough or sneeze.
biut I had my surgery on Nov 20 and I have been back tyo my factory Job since Dec 10.
