Home from LSH and feel great
I had a LSH on Thursday Aug. 14th. I feel great! The worst part for me was recovering from the anesthesia. I wasn't prepared for the nausea and vomiting. Also, my throat was incredibly sore for several days from the tubing. My stomach felt like I had done 1,000 crunches, LOL! I did have gas pain in my shoulder as well. Having said all of that I can honestly say that my recovery was very easy. I forced myself to stay on the couch most of the weekend but was off all pain meds by Saturday. I just got back from spending the weekend moving my daughter in to her dorm in Boston! I did try not to lift anything and I was a bit more tired than usual but... I am off to the gym now. Best of luck to you and all of my sisters out there and please if you or anyone reading this has any questions feel free to ask away.

Sorry to hear that you had a few minor snags. I can say that I did not have any issues with nausea, vomiting or gas pain. Yea!
Seriously, the worst thing for me was trying to figure out how to get into my own bed on day two. LOL
