    Sounds like it won't take too long at all.

    one thing is don't do too much when you go home as i felt fine aft egg collection, had sedation and then just some pain killers. well i went and did some stuff on way home with dh and basically did too much and took ages to feel ok again. so take it easy please. good luck

    I agree with JBM - just don't do anything afterwards! I went for a walk for 40 minutes (wasn't a fast walk) the day after and the next day could barely walk or stand up straight and was like that for a week.

    Good luck possum - the epu itself is not a problem. I was told that bloating was at its worst a week after epu (and I'd have to agree).
