They will put you to sleep and make a small incision near your belly button. Then they will pump you full of gas to help your other organs move out of the way so that the cyst can be easily seen.\n\nThey will remove the cyst, stitch you up and give you guidelines for taking care of the surgical site.  Pay very careful attention to those details. My site got infected because not all of the stitches dissolved.  (Though I didn't realize it.)\n\nThe gas will absorb into your system on it's own.  You will feel bloated and full from that. Don't despair. It will go away.  They may say something like 3 days, but it could take a week.\n\nGood luck!

i agree with summerflower.  seeing your doctor is the best bet.  however, if it helps any, i saw my gyno for the exact same reason.  believe it or not, she told me it was my egg travelling through the tunnel.  now that i know that it is harmless, it doesn't hurt quite so much.  put your mind at ease and ask your doctor.

the first 6 weeks are hell, as with any surgery. Just keep in concact with your doctor

I had surgery last year and I felt exactly like this (other than the poring blood part..that's kind of scary).  Your throat is sore because they jammed a tube down it.  Your having a hard time breathing because of the anesthesia and your chest is sore.  Your head hurts from the anesthesia and your body is sore because you should see the things they do to bodies on the operating table.  lol  Just kidding. Your body has been through A LOT today.  Give it time to heal.  As for the bleeding...do what ever the Doctors said!  If you get real short of breath go to the ER. Good luck and remember...you only get what you pay for :-).

It feels like a quick pinch. I think the best ways to think about any piercing is, if it hurt that bad, most people wouldn't have gotten it done. And how many people have theirs pierced? Also, any "pain" you feel is generally over in less than 5 sec (if that). All you have to remember is getting through those few seconds, and then afterwards you can look back at how silly it was to be scared. And you'll have a brand new piercing that looks fabulous.

It's normal to be nervous about an operation...I have had four, one of them when I was about 11 years old  and I was scared, the other three I was an adult,and nervous about them. But, try to remember that you are surrounded by doctors and nurses that are there to take care of you, and that if you weren't going to benefit from having the operation they would not be doing it. Try to relax, in the end it's not as scary as you think it is. It is just an unknown to you, so nervousness is natural...You will be fine.

I am a RN who has  taught Nursing for over 20 years.  I have also had a Laparoscopy and D&C performed when I was in my 30's.  Of course everyone responds to surgeries differently but it seems to me that I had one week vacation following that surgery.  I also went back to work 10 days after abdominal surgery for a small bowel resection because I was needed back at work but didn't lift anything of considerable weight.  I would think that if your husband is able to take one week off from work to help out at home with the kids that that should be sufficient.  Just don't try to lift the kids and explain to them that you have a tummy ache which they should understand.  I'm sure they will be glad to assist you.  As for pain this is also very individual.  I was given pain medication by my physician and found that this covered my pain pretty well.  Since the incisions for a laparoscopy are so small they didn't hurt at all.  The gas was somewhat uncomfortable but warm baths seemed to help until it was resorbed by my body.  The pain medication helped the crampy feeling from the D&C and I was on my feet much of each day.  How fortunate you are to have a husband to help you out.  I'm pretty sure that you will be feeling your usual self again in 7-10 days.  Good luck to you and God bless.

yes, I actually had it done a week ago.  It is an EXTEMELY senstive area, and unless you have had breast surgery, and some of the nerves are dead, it will hurt!  Also, for most people it is a hyperpigmented area, meaning it is dark, hard to know what the color will turn out like, and if you get any result from all the discomfort.

Oh you poor thing!  That same thing happened to me!  The dentist gave me the shot and I felt like I needed to panic, my stomach knotted up and the room felt like it was about 150 degrees.  It was really scary.  The dentist said that it was really rare but if you need surgery again make the dentist go through options with you.  Don't except the "its all in your head" mentality.  I hope this works out for you.  Good Luck!

The actual surgery doesn't hurt at all.  It may feel like you have a piece of sand in your eye for a couple of days afterwards.

haha i felt like that too when i had surgery. well you're not going to get much sleep tonight so don't worry about it. you'll be tired in the morning but thats better because you'll be less stressed in the morning. tonight just watch movies until you feel tired and fall asleep. \n\ni was so nervous when i sat in the hospital bed, my bf was talking to me and i coudn't even pay attention long enuf to listen to what he was saying. i was so restless. i didnt' get much sleep the night before either. tomorrow when you get to the hospital jsut before your surgery they will give you a little pre-med pill that will relax you and if you're anything like me you'll be so tired to be worried and you'll be falling asleep as you walk into the theatre to have your surgery. \n\ni wasn't nervous at all when i walked in, i was so tired, i just wanted to get on the operating table and sleep. that shiny cold hard metal table just looked sooo comfy to me! :D good luck with your surgery!

i had my gallbladder out in march and the surgery is actually really routine. if you are healthy enough for laproscopic surgery, they will make three small incisions (one under your breastbone, one midway down your right side, and one in your belly button), and the surgery will just take about 45 minutes. they use general anesthesia, so you'll be out for the whole thing. the recovery period isn't too bad ... my doctor told me to take a week off from work and that seems about average. make sure you keep up with your pain killers while you recover.\n\nthe most uncomfortable part of recovery for me was from the carbon dioxide they pump in your body in order to move around more freely during the surgery. i was told that my shoulders would be sore for 18 hours, but it was actually closer to a full week for me. i couldn't do anything without pain in my shoulders from the CO2 that was still trying to dissipate. once that finally happened, i felt like i could pretty much go about normal life.\n\nif you are overweight, your doctor may suggest traditional surgery, where an incision is made to remove the organ. recovery time for this surgery can be up to 6 weeks.\n\ngood luck!

I have had one wisdom tooth taken out and it was ok.  They gave me an injection and I felt absolutely no pain.\nYou would be under a general anaesthic for this and will not feel a thing.\nSurgery is not as scary as it sounds.  Infact, it is very relaxing.\nYou can always have a drug to help you relax prior to the general anaesthetic.  \nHaving surgery is an amazing thing actually.  It takes just a split second to be anaesthetized and before you know it, you are awake and wondering if they have done you or not.\nYou may feel some pain after surgery but with the right pain killers, you will get through it with no problems.\nObviously, your dentist feels they must come out.\nYou will feel better for it and so will your mouth.\nSpeak to your dentist about the fears you are having.  Speak to others who have had it done. I know my little brother in law(who is just 20) had 4 of his out recently and he is doing great.\nMy 15 year old neice had five teeth removed and she was fine.\nOf course, surgery for the first time is scary but I want to assure you that it's not.\nI find it very relaxing.  You will be in the best of care.\nTry not to worry about it.  Think pleasant thoughts.  Sometimes the drs. and nurses joke around with you to help relax you.\nJust think of it has having a nice sleep while they fix up your mouth.\nGood luck : ) Keep smiling.......your teeth will be beautiful

t you are feeling is due to the surgery. when lap surgery is done, not only is the skin cut but a membrane on the inside is also cut. this membrane is not stitched so the incision does not close easily. sometimes it takes as much as 2 years for this to heal. sometimes there will be a knot form at the incision, this is a gut pushing through the hole of the membrane. you can gently push this back with your fingers. you will feel this problem more when you bend over. be patient and it will heal eventually.\n\nmy wife has gone through the same surgery, May 2004, and she is still having the same problems that you are having. just so you know the doctors will tell you that every thing is fine. feel free to contact me about any information that I might be able to help you with. I am an herbalist and I might be able to find something in the herbs that can help you. contact: widowmaker54@yahoo.com\ngood luck and best wishes to you.
