It's a laparoscopic procedure, and I can go home later that night or the next day if there are no complications, but it's not going to be a fun recovery... and there's only so much time I can take off of work because people are depending on me.

The last time I had anesthesia, I spent the rest of the day in bed crying because I was nauseous and felt disgusting. I'm more worried about the anesthesia than the pain tbh. The pain from the procedure won't be any worse than the pain that created the need for it.

I wish the surgery to go well and solve the problem.

That’s no fun.
