Had the left side done with mesh 18 months ago. I wasn't thrilled about my first surgery either but it went quickly and I was home before lunch. I wasn't in much pain the first few days, if I didn't move. Didn't even take the pain pills... Plan on sitting in a comfortable chair and getting up only when you have to. Getting in and out of bed was the biggest challenge. I couldn't figure out a way to do it without seeing stars, at least for the first week. Be prepared for the bruising and discoloration that will occur. It surprised the hell out of me and I didn't know if it was normal or if something had gone very wrong. Have someone around to wait on you hand and foot, as the key is to not overdo it.
I don't think the show is a good idea, that soon.
Good luck,
JR
