Date set

Not sure what type I'm having. My doctor will be doing my surgery. All will be taken out including cervix, except ovaries if they are still good. Pre-op is September 12th, surgery set for September 19th. Starting to get nervous already.

You are not alone! Before finding this site I was going bonkers. Waiting is the worst. I only have 4 more days and can not wait to get it over with. I ended up getting a RX for anxiety (lorazepam) so I can deal with it situationally . It seems to help without making me drool. I have been on a roller coaster of emotions and went to see a psychologist. He said that his mother had a hysterectomy at age 70 and a few days before hers she became highly emotional and was weeping about losing her womb. That seemed to validated my feeling pretty well.

We just take it one moment at a time. Come here when you need to connect with others that are feeling just like you! It helps.
