Hello sisters!
My TVH/BSO was Thursday morning, Dec. 29 at 7:30 a.m., took a little less than 3 hours with no complications or surprises, and my doc released me last night at 9:00 p.m. to come home. I will post my experience on the hyst-story page in a few days when I can sit for a longer period of time.
I feel great mentally and emotionally...which is a HUGE relief! And physically, I ache, but my pain meds, rest, and tons of water are helping that be manageable. I get up and walk every so often, so I am doing all the things a princess is supposed to do! So far, I am not on any HRT although I will need to (I'm only 38) and I have not had any hotflashes or anything.
So for all of you who are still waiting, hang in there. For me, that was the roughest part! Thanks to the other sisters out there who have shared their stories. I felt very prepared having read postings here. Thanks to the hystersister hostesses for this site!
Happy New Year to all of you...
Princess Jan
