What should I expect removing the other lipoma, near herniated L4/L5? (Photo)

curiouscat339
34 y/o female, 5’9” I had a lipoma removed already- peach sized, pressed against the back of my right-hipbone (Around $10k). This first procedure had a tough recovery, as lipomas are adjacent to herniated L4/L5, right on my lower back. I had the right side removed and not sure what to expect healing from left side excision. I have pressure on my left hip, have felt the lipoma “pulsate”, and feel imbalanced. My work involves slight lifting, moving, always on my feet. Was 10k too $$$?
