How painful is bunion surgery?

I am scheduled to have bunion surgery on my right foot, along with some other surgery on that foot to correct 2 hammer toes, bunionettes, and a big callus on the bottom of my food. I was told I couldn’t walk or drive for 6 – 8 weeks. Can anyone tell me if their surgery was successful and how much pain was involved. I will have to have the left foot done when the right foot heals.

Thanks!
