Red face What to expect after Appendectomy

I had an emergency Appendectomy. It was the lapscroptic surgery. Now I am not sure of a few things. I feel fine, however, not sure what:

1. Short distances mean when you are walking.
2. How long should the walk be?
3. Do you still have pain in that right side where the appendix was, and if you do , how long will that last?
4. When can you resume sexual activity?
5. What kind of work restrictions do u have to obey, when going back to work.?

1. Start small and don't over do it.
2. See 1.
3. Sometimes, diminishes over a few weeks.
4. See 1
5. See 1, typically nothing over 30 pounds/14 kilos to be lifted for 4-6 weeks.

Not trying to be smug just stating reality. You do what you can when you can and not a moment earlier. If you over do it you will know by the next day for sure. So try whatever you will but take it easy the first time and if that goes well try something a bit more vigourous the next time, whether that is walking or something else

I had 2 w7 8s. They are nice subs, but really didnt do it for me. You can try 1 10, but I dont know what youre looking for. I would really do 1 12, that would sound nice

the big set is 5 packs and the subsequent sets are 6.

You can expect lots of bad players and lots of BO.

If the appendix (a small pouch hanging from the large intestine) becomes infected and inflamed, it has to be surgically removed in an operation known as an appendectomy (AH-pen-DEK-tuh-mee). Two options are available:
* Open Appendectomy: This is the traditional approach, in which the doctor removes the appendix through a large incision in the lower right-hand side of the abdomen.

Is generally considered an emergency appendectomy and did a very short notice. Probably no one knows exactly what to expect when appendicitis. You may have questions about the procedure and what should be done to minimise recovery time.
