I had the same thing (Level/Stage III) but my recovery was relatively pain-free. First...I didn't eat much..Second, I took all the pain meds they gave me at the specified intervals whether I thought I needed them or not. First 6 days were the worst, but even that wasn't bad. My advice: Don't each much, and when you do, make it vegetables, take lots of warm baths....I lost 20 pounds and plan to keep it off. Tough way to do it but it worked....I had low-dose percocet for the first few days and then something like 5% Vicodin/Acetominafin for a week after that.

Glad I had it done. Would not suggest anyone wait if the horror stories of recovery is what's keeping you from taking care of it.
