So, I'm 7 days post-op and I will just reiterate to get up abc walk as soon as possible.  I was walking the afternoon of surgery (I also had surgery at 7:30 am).  I was able to get off the morphine drip by midnight that first night and have been off the oxy for 3 days.  Everyone is different but honestly the worst part was the radiating shoulder pain from the CO2 gas....heating pad helps a lot.  It is nearly all gone now.  By day 3, I was walking 30-60 minutes just to get the gas out.  You'll do great!  Blessings and all good things!!!! Oh and I would have been bored without my smart phone and I was released next day, but I also slept a fair bit!  Good luck!!!!!

I just said a prayer for you that you would be granted peace, that your surgery would go very smoothly, and that your recovery would go well.  Don't worry!!! Have faith. :)
