I agree ... do exactly what the doctor says. It makes a huge difference. Remain aware of how much things weigh. I had a lifting limit that I broke regularly without thinking about it. For example, a full laundry basket weighs more than five pounds! lol Go figure!
Also, I had the full abdominal surgery, but it turned out great for me. My last child was an emergency C-section with a botched scar. She repaired that scar for me when she did my hysterectomy.
I did have a drain though, but it wasn't too bad.
