Supposedly a lap procedure is an easier recovery but I've heard a lot of people who had open and did really well. I think a lot has to do with your condition before surgery and how you tolerate pain. I don't remember being in terrible pain but I think the morphine pump dulled my memory! Good luck on your surgery! Mary Kylie,
