For the most part, no, but you will feel weak and tired for a couple of weeks. By the time you go home we like to have you up, walking, and pretty self-sufficient. You will need to avoid driving and heavy lifting or pushing for about six weeks. After that, you'll have no surgical limitations. You can sleep in any position you like. You can wash your hair. Just don't push or pull anything heavy until your body heals (about six weeks).
