Guest guest Posted August 27, 2001 Report Share Posted August 27, 2001 I don't know how you did it. I was out for 4 weeks and I needed just about every minute. I was so sure pre-op that I would be better within a couple of weeks. At two weeks I was still napping twice daily. The good part was that I was so tired that I didn't even worry about work for the first time in years. They could have called and told me that the building was on fire and I would have laughed. I actually put myself first for once and it felt great. Tina > In a message dated 8/27/2001 4:13:20 PM Pacific Daylight Time, > MsMystic1@a... writes: > > > > did you have your surgery open or lap?
