Back in hospital and scared.

Don't be scared. You are in the hospital and everything will be taken care of. You will get through this.

They did an internal exam and a giant clot came out and they feel that held it all in. They kept me overnight and did a CAT scan as well as an ULtrasound. The later hurt like hell. I am now on antibiotics. That transferred me from the hospital close to me to one further that has more residents, they drove me by ambulance. I remember very little other than stress and crying. I never cry, I did a lot. I was worried about bleeding to death and frankly the nursing care was less than helpful. I think I was a tough patient though. I am still spotting a bit and very tired. Today is sleep, fluids and stool softeners. Back to the poopy issues. I am stunned and grateful by all the well wishes and prayers here. What can I ever say but thank you sisters. Hysterectomies are not for wimps, you ladies are the kindest and toughest.

I am glad that things are in order now - we were all sending love and healing. That was certainly a scary ordeal but am so glad it was an identifiable issue. Rest well.

glad you doing better. whew! Yep out and about...did too much yesterday and paying for it today. Went and saw The Help at the movies. had a wonderful boohoo, tears running down my chest and cheeks. Ladies go see this one when you can! Anyhoo, Poop and Gas are much better....i'm just way swollen today. Laying low!

I don't know if I expressed enough how grateful I am for all of your support. You held my hand in a dark hospital room, you worried from many states away, you were kind to a stranger in need. You understood my fears when no one else could. I am grateful and deeply touched in my soul. The sad sore empty place where my uterus and cervix used to be is now filled with your kindness. Thank you my sisters in healing.

Hi Rosey how are you doing? What happened while you were in the hospital. Did they have to go back in?? I hope not..I hope you are resting and this finds you feeling better!! Hugs

No no no, just thanking these great woman. I was admitted for 2 days as I began to hemmorage from a hematoma and developed an infection. I am home for almost 2 weeks from that and SLOWLY healing.I

I know exactly what you mean in reference to getting your life back. It is difficult to focus on anything because you are scared and frustrated. You went through an ordeal! I am 6 1/2 weeks and still not up to snuff. I think the worst was listening to people telling me that I should be fine and back to normal. My 6th week I had to take my daughter back to college and move her up into her 3rd floor room. NO I did not lift anything heavy, just light stuff. But it wiped me out from the drive to unpacking the car. I stayed over as planned and rested, it reallt stinks. Oh and do you feel like a weather vane? My sutures seem to hurt when it is going to rain.! Am I crazy???

I am so glad that you are feeling better Rosy and they did not have to go back in. Yes, this site has alot of great women. MD's dont tell you everything, but this site can scare you also with all the wild stories. We all must count our blessings.

Teensy you are so right. Only those of us having gone through..going through this know how it is. The theory that 'all should be back to normal' in 6 weeks is only a theory. We all heal differently.MD's can say what they want but only hystersisters know. Glad everyone is doing better. I am 5 weeks post TAH

You said it sister ! LOL beautiful day go and enjoy it, even if it is laying or sitting outside..Took awhile to get to that point
