how long is recovery from laproscopic adhesion surgery?

Hi
I have sooo many questions about my upcoming surgery. I will ask my surgeon Monday when I see him, but I feel coming from my sisters who have experienced it themselves may give me a better idea as to recovery time.I am not sure as to how much work will be done. there is no way of telling until he gets in there and I will have no choices as to the matter, as I will be asleep. I hate that feeling!It is supposed to be out patient. I am also having gallbladder complications which may affect my recovery. I was in the hospital 2 nights this week for dehydration and a UTI.
The gallbladder attacks are getting more frequent.
I will be off until after I recover from the gallbladder surgery. I just am trying to get a time frame for recovery from both surgeries.

Thanks for any help
Peggy

I had my right ovary and adhesions removed lapraoscopically 3 months ago. I started having problems with cysts and pain about 11 months ago. I was having horrible pain with intercourse and bowel movements. My doctor had been watching the cysts for any changes - they had gotten larger and turned from simple cysts to complex cysts. My surgery was done laparoscopically. The right ovary was adhered to the top of the vaginal cuff and covered with adhesions and cysts - it was removed. My left ovary had some fluid filled cysts that were drained and then the ovary was wrapped in mesh to protect it. I also had many adhesions removed that were attached to my bladder, bowel, colon, and liver.

The only way to positively diagnosis adhesions is by having lapraoscopic surgery.

My doctor recommended a 3-4 week recovery period after my lapraoscopic surgery. By 4 weeks I was feeling pretty good.

I will be praying that your surgery goes well. After you have surgery be sure to let us know how you are doing.
