Bartholin's gland removal surgery

Due to continually getting cysts, I am having surgery to remove my bartholin's gland. I have been googling and scaring myself. Just wondering if anyone has had this surgery and what the recovery was like?

I've had this. In and out the same day, was sore for a few days afterwards but nothing unmanageable

You will feel so much better afterwards. The recovery is nothing as bad as the pain before. Just take it easy for a few days afterwards and you should be grand
