Kristian:

You know what, I can only compare it to a myomectomy. It was actually fabulous. You just, it was, they go in through your upper thigh area. You are local anesthesia instead of a general. You are in the hospital for one day and your recovery time is five days; that sounds wonderful to me.

It took me, because of the complications I had from myomectomy surgery, it took me about a year to recover until I was feeling 100% and not really a 100% because I had my incision that they gave me for the myomectomy had to heal on its own. So it took longer.
