I'm back!
Hello! I got home from the castle yesterday, and am now a princess!
I got to the hospital Monday at 10:00 a.m. and went in to surgery at 11:40. I have no idea what time it was when I got out. My uterus was enlarged and boggy, but haven't got the path report on it yet. I had been hoping to save my ovaries (I'm 40 y/o), but my gyn said that when she looked at them, they were covered with cysts and varicose veins "the size of my finger", so she removed them. Hopefully that is what was causing my chronic pelvic pain and I won't have that any more!
Stayed in the hosp. for two days afterwards. The nurses couldn't believe how quickly I wanted to get up and walk. Did very well with gas issues, etc.
A great big THANKS to all of you who have been through this and helped with all of your advice. I'm sure I wouldn't have done so well without it.

Welcome back, Judy! Sounds like you did very well! Aren't you glad it's over ? Be sure to be a good , walk, plenty of fluids (don't forget the 100% cranberry juice!), and REST! REST! REST! Remember! The pillow are watching and will come after you if you don't obey your 's orders!!!
I'm so glad you're back! Was it true that the waiting was the worst part? I think you are going to feel much better now.
Gentle healing s

Huge Veins??? Me Too!
Please let us know if the hyster helps your pain. I very very large veins and am in severe chronic pain.. They don't want to do a TAH because of my age and not having kids (we want to adopt later, anyway). If anyone has any advice on how to convince them PLEASE, let me know......This is no way to live!!!! Help!!!
