TAH 13 days post hysterectomy: New Pain light bleeding and some oozing

Help! I'm 13 days post op and was feeling great- walking and getting out, then yesterday woke up with cramps and light red discharge. Haven't felt much better today- taking it VERY easy and still having cramping like pains. One spot on my incision is oozing a little bit. Is all this normal? The pain seems in my stomach not at incision - to the right slightly going down into vagina area. Wondering if I should bother the on call doc.

It may be that you did too much while you were feeling great and you need to let your body rest for a bit. If you bleed enough to fill a pad in an hour, feel severe pain, develop a fever, make sure to be seen right away. If you are really worried go ahead and call the on-call doctor. It can't hurt, and it's their job to answer calls.

I agree with Elsie I'm 11 days post op, I knew I had been doing to much due to the cramping so today I have done nothing and feel a little better tonight will be doing the same tomorrow nothing lol

I'm feeling a bit better today with oozing and spotting... However I woke up with some bad side/back pain and just peed pink hours later! Ugh! Any thoughts? I thought the pain was just gas.

Are you sure the urine was pink or is it possible some blood came from the vagina? If you have some blood in your urine, it is possible you have a UTI. You should call your doctor's office and speak to the on-call doctor and let them know what is going on. With the pain, it may be that you need to be seen sooner rather than later.
