My surgery is June 9th. What do you wish you would have known, understood, or been told? Were you in pain? Were you tired for a week? Two weeks? Etc, etc

The main thing I wish I would have known was - be prepared to sleep propped up like in a hospital bed. I had to roll up a comforter into a big log so I could sleep propped up. It was at least 2 weeks before I could sleep laying flat and a few more days later before I could sleep on my side without feeling a pulling sensation in my stomach.
