Brief Answer:
IVF is an alternate option

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

You can join work after 3 days.

Chances of pregnancy are more if recanalization is successful.

You will be given anesthesia and you will not feel pain.

If you don't want laparoscopy, go ahead with IVF to have children.

Brief Answer:
Dont worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Dont worry about the minor changes in ECG. Show your ECG to anesthetist so that he can choose the best option for anesthesia ( SPinal anesthesia if necessary). This should not be a problem. Hypothyroidism is not a problem if well controlled with medicines.

Please meet your anesthetist one or two days before procedure to show your reports.

I dont think this is big issue to worry about.
