3 wk post op...several problems!!
i am 3 wks post op with a total laparoscopic hysterectomy. since having my surgery my lower back has been bothering me, however in the last week it has become quite painful to the point where I am having a hard time getting comfortable when I sleep. for about the last 5 days I have had really bad cramps around my pubic bone and all the way up outer right side to my ribs. i experience this throughout the day but it is unbearable when I go to the bathroom. I have also had diarrhea since my surgery even though my diet has been the same. can anyone help with these issues? i don't see my Dr. till next Tuesday. i am really worried something is wrong but really don't want to go to the Dr. early if I don't have to.

Re: 3 wk post op...several problems!!
I think any unbearable pain would merit a call to the doctor. I am at 4 weeks post-op and definitely have had some back aches and aches in my side (particularly left side and more often while sleeping) on and off so far during my recovery, but nothing that isn't tolerable.

Honey, I'm so sorry you are in so much pain, call your doctor as soon as possible, I don't know what causes your pain, kidney infection (had this myself, the pain is debiliting!). Please don't wait!
Please take care of this!!!!
Hugs Gerri

I was looking up my symptoms earlier and it didn't help much. I read all about kidney infections but I don't have a fever.

Re: 3 wk post op...several problems!!
Renmac,
I know you are a strong woman, but if feel unbearable pain, the Internet won't help you much...
I had a complicated kidney infection in dec 2011, didn't have fever either, just excruciating pain in left lower back... I ended up in the the ER, spent 7 days in hospital.., it was really bad
I tend to down play everything... Well almost died (complications, long story...)
Please don't ignore it... Even if not kidney related, it doesn't sound right....
