I myself can't give any feedback regarding the fertility questions. however I can tell you my own experience I had lap number 4 at the end of September and am worse now than before. I use to at least get some relief after surgery however the past two surgeries I have had have come with no releif. Pain level after surgery really depends on you, i dont have any post op pain and haven;t for a month now. However the last surgery i had i couldn't beileve how much pain i was in however i had a lot more done than they had expected. I can tell you i went back to work 3 days after surgery, and i can tell you that that was too soon, I blame part of it on me and part of it on my doc, they told it was just outpatient and to rest for that day, but i could start to resume normal activities the next day, i could barely walk. Anyhow good luck feel free to email with any questions.
