I had the EXACT same thing a couple years ago. I must have vomited at least 5 times.
You are fine. It's going to be 1 small scar near your right hip, 1 small scar right at or above your pelvis and a 3/4" slit in your belly button.
You can't eat for 24 hours after surgery, get to eat hospital food. The next day is the worst because everything wears off and you feel all the pain from every muscle being sore.
All good though. You will be back and moving in 1.5 weeks or so.

Good luck bro! It really isn't that bad, it happened to me 1.5 years ago. You should be in there for less then 24hrs, then you won't be able to lift more then 40lbs for two weeks. Let us know how it goes.

Yours was Laparoscopic, they cut me open, I have a scar on my stomach about 2.5" long. It does hurt like a bitch after those meds wear off! [ February 16, 2012, 11:18 AM: Message edited by: Greasy ]

Woke up with a weird heart beat and extreme pain, the pain was from me not being able to swallow was from the breathing tube. Made me puke which made it hurt like hell. Doing good now, just hella tired.
