I haven't had surgery in a LONG time, but I remember not really being tired but slow for about a week or so after getting home. (I was in the hosp for 5 days.) I had bouts of pain here and there as I healed...and then I itched like mad for about another month. Whatever you do, get something for itching and do not let him scratch! He can infect his incisions.
