I don't know if this is in the right place. But just to reassure anyone going through this. I had this done on the 8 August and I'm home 13 August. Nothing to be afraid of I know you will but honestly it's fine I had the open surgery so I look like iv had a fight with a shark. . The answer is keep on top of your pain relive the nurses will do that for you but when you come keep it going if you have any questions I can help with just ask this is a very scary time for us all x
