Hi Debbie,

Welcome to the forum.I am sorry for the confusion it was not my intention.I was in a hurry to answer this post for Amy and should not have attempted to do it while I was so tired..Not only did I misunderstand what Amy was trying to ask..I also confused you.I apologize.I agree with you about a Diagnostic lap being surgery and it is nothing to be taken lightly, I apologize if thats what came accross, All I was trying to say is... that some women may recover in 3 days from a simple or diagnostic lap and be back at work(when No other surgery is done) and someone else(like myself) may take Up to 3 months if extensive surgery is done,even if its through a laparoscopy .Sorry for the confusion. I hope I have made myself clearer this time. Best Wishes and again a warm welcome.

Belle
