For those who have had it done, how long did the pain last afterward? Were you able to work the next day (or the day after that)?

Oh boy!!!
I had a stent in place post-op, so I was off for a week.

Make sure you get adequate sedation. I woke up in the middle of my procedure and thought someone was whacking me with a baseball bat.

Best wishes to you.

PS: I had more pain before the procedure, so the post op period wasn't too bad.

The stent is very uncomfortable. I had it done twice, and it is about a week for recovery.
