-- Amanda,

I too just had this done exactly 12 days ago. This was my first laparscopy, and today was my first day out of my home. I still am not walking normal. A bit hunched over when I first get up ect... But I still have bruising as well externally. Went to the doctor today and she said it was normal. She said " if you arre still bruised on the outside what do you think your insides look like still?" Made sense each person is different. I do however look forward to the morning I wake up and can move like I used to;-)
