7 wks, Legs like rubber, exhausted...are you too?

Hi sisters,

I'm 7 weeks from a TAH, burch, cystolene, adhesion/endo repair. Kept ovaries.

First- I have a cyst on one ovary- about 3.5 cm...and the other is "very, very tiny" (what does that mean?) And I am so tired I can't live an even restricted life. Is it premature ovarian failure? Is it something else? My doc says I have "thickening" in my vaginal cuff and my seroma is still there too, depite draining it 5 times.

I feel like I'm dying. I can't help but have horrible thoughts in what is going on. Does this sound familiar to any of you? I am so desperate. I have nothing but prayer left. I pray one of you can shed light on this... Please?

I know there are some other women who will respond to you. It seems someone has been thru what we've been thru no matter what it is. I'm sorry I don't have any answers for you, but I just wanted to let you know that I will keep you in my prayers.

I felt like that the first few weeks i started becoming more active. I started walking the 2nd week, even if it was just to pass 3 houses and return to mine. My DH was very supportive and walked with me. I felt like I was 9 mos. pg and the baby was pushing down. The more you do the better it will be. I was pretty much "down" for 3-4 wks and when I started walking more and lifting things and then finally last week (I'm now 7 wks post op) i slowly took a flight of stairs...my legs were rubbery. It is because you haven't used them, if you were like me and stayed reclined...I had to due to pelvic pain. Good luck and take care
