Your surgical team will be best placed to answer your however my recent experience (hysterectomy in December)may be helpful.

I had various pre surgical procedures and tests, mainly because I'm a stage 4 bowel cancer patient and endometrial cancer was discovered incidentally following a PET scan for lung mets. Long story short, I had day surgery - and as promised by consultant was first on her list and discharged by 5pm the same day. I  was in surgery for maybe an hour and felt quite disoriented for a while after I woke up back on the ward. I think I may be a tough old boot but I found the pain quite manageable, opting to stop oramorph after a couple of days. Some movement was initially painful then for me moved to uncomfortable fairly quickly.I took regular doses of paracetamol for a week or so.

I was cautious about overdoing things and paid strict attention to not lifting anything heavy for six weeks post surgery. I started gentle exercise in the same week as the procedure. I didn't drive for approx 5 weeks, husband did the bulk of housework and cooking. 

I'm by no means the fittest but had made efforts to lose some weight and up my exercise levels ahead of surgery (made possible because of delay to surgery  to address lung situation and a requirement for a colonoscopy). I definitely think this helped speed my recovery.I'm now 7 weeks post surgery and feel great, a?part from a very occasional twinge.

I hope you will have similar good fortune and wish you good luck.I'm happy to answer any questions if there's anything I can help with.
