Hi Chasity. I donated 3 years ago and experienced no bad results. I had the normal surgical recovery, but was back to home and work (desk) in a few weeks. It was only painful when getting out bed & only for the first couple weeks. It wasn't a known person recipient, so that would be a difference. 2 people recovering in a household will be different, I think. You'll want to be sure to not do too much too early in your healing.
