Abdominal Hysterectomy - My story is not typical, but it hapened to me

I had my uterus removed August 2005, (fibroids) and have not been the same since.

To mention, I have an underlying auto-immune disease that unfortunately was jump-started after my surgery and three years later, has basically not stopped flaring since. My personality has taken a very noticeable change in the wrong direction, constant irritability and mood swings.

I realize now I should have thought about the severe stress any surgery has on the body, even on a healthy person, which I'm not. I wish I never had it done. I miss my old self, and so does my family.

The uterus has so many functions, and interacts with other reproductive organs and hormone functions. I did not know this at the time, I just wanted that heavy bleeding to stop.

I am an unfortunate exception, but I wanted to share this to make girls aware, that is not always the answer.
