and above may signal infection and should be reported. The other listed symptoms are
expected after this surgery. Shoulder pain (ranging from mild to severe) is due to the CO2 gas
injected during surgery; it will dissipate within days. Band-Aids or other small dressings will be

day or two before appetite returns to normal.
