Bi slap + recovery
Hi everyone! I'm scheduled for my bilateral salpingectomy this coming Tuesday 8/18. I'm 31 and have a 4yr old daughter and my decision to be one and done has been made up since I was pregnant lol.
That being said, I'm excited but also feeling anxious.
I've read through this sub and I see that everyone's recovery has been different (as expected).
First thing making me anxious is my period started today (wasn't supposed to start until Wednesday or Thursday, after the procedure). Has anyone else started their period right before their procedure?
Next thing, how did you all feel within 24 hours and what was activity like for you? - I am only asking because I have an important meeting I'm scheduled to attend the following day (about 27 hours post op). It's in person but should be a short meeting. I wont take any opioid pain medication... I hate how it makes me feel and it all usually makes me vomit anyway. I also get to work from home so other than that, I'll be able to get lots of rest.
As far as pain tolerance, when I gave birth, I had an almost 4th degree tear and had to be stitched from the inside 🥴 I was very sore from that but still managed well.
I'll take all tips, tricks, and advice you all have.
