You'll be aces. You need a ride home. Check with Doc re driving-some limit you and it's a good idea for the first few days to avoid driving, digging, shoveling--stuff that uses your lower abdominal muscles.

TAKE THE PAIN MED BEFORE THE LOCAL WEARS OFF.

REPEAT: TAKE THE PAIN MED BEFORE THE LOCAL WEARS OFF. And then take it as directed around the clock for the first 24 hours. You'll never look back and you'll be a new man.


ETA: Smarty is correct. My tubal was hell-sick afterward and in bed. General anesthesia, shaved, crampy weird shit, nausea. Blech.
