    I had a laparoscopy and a hysteroscopy and a D&C done in 99 and it made me swear that I would never have a c/s. I had three days off work and I had to call in to say that I still wasn't able to come in because I was still quite sore and I had a bit of shoulder pain as well (due to the gas they use to bloat your stomach up with and this is not uncommon) I found it difficult to drive as the seatbelt went right across my tummy where one of the incisions was (I had three - one in the bikini area similar to where a c/s cut is done, one in my navel and one to the left). All up I would say it took a good 3wks to be completely back to normal without any soreness.

    Play it by ear and see how you go - everyone will have a different recovery time and depending on how rough they are when they do it you may not be that sore at all.
