[quote=Anonymous]Hi Kay, welcome! I know what you mean about fear of being put under. It was my greatest fear before my lap - I'd never had surgery before. It really scared me, and I never want to to again unless I absolutely have to. I don't think it's an irrational fear at all. It's a complete lack of control and consciousness. We all LIKE being alive and awake. The good thing about the ER is that you're only under for about 20 minutes, and the recovery is very very fast. I napped all afternoon after mine, and felt good enough to drive to acupuncture in the evening. The anesthesia has some mildly annoying side effects, like constipation. But it is not painful, just uncomfortable. You'll be bloated and a little uncomfortable for a week, then things get pretty quickly back to normal. (Well, other than progesterone side effects! More bloating! Pantyliners! Sore breasts! Blech. But those subside, too.) Good luck with the retrieval! Let us know how it goes. --Sue[/quote]
