Hi,

I was just mentioning in one of the other discussions that I had post op twinges for three months but have been fine since.

I had my lap seven days before going on holiday and I was off work that whole time. After the first three days, there was less pain in the abdomen and just swelling and tiredness from the anaesthetic. It was good to have the chance to rest up and get over it quickly but the cat was very put out at not being able to stand all over me as he usually does.

I think when it comes to time off, play it by ear. I know I wouldn't have been any good at work until at least a week had elapsed because I couldn't have sat there for any length of time. All I wanted to do was sleep!
