I have had a lapro and its pretty simple and with minimal scarring since its keyhole surgery
Do expect pain in your shoulders (known as Shoulder Tip Pain) as the gas they use to inflate the adominal cavity forces your lungs up so the tips of the lungs hurt...but it subsides in a few days as the gas naturally expels from the body
My lapro came back all clear...which in a way was frustrating as at least when something is wrong you can fix it! now i am just an unexplained infertility patient and its nearly 4 yrs TTC
anyway i hope your lapro is fine... u will be knocked out for the whole thing and it doesnt take very long 2 do
Location: Alsace, France and Basel, Switzerland... soon to be Oxford, UK

I'm Currently Feeling:
My cousin is an anesthesiologist and told me that 1 in 3 people get the shoulder pain (and it huuurts) but maybe you won't be unlucky like fefe and me!
I think i'd feel the same and prefer that they can sort any problems rather than tell me they cant find anything wrong....this pain i get must mean there is something wrong i just hope they can fix whatever it is....
