Thinking of you
Hi! I just wanted to send you a big and let you know I'm thinking about you. My surgery is scheduled for the 27th and I'm starting to get nervous too. I'm sure everything will be fine (for us both) and you'll be feeling great in no time!

Two more days-I'm so nervous
Dear ladies
I had a tvh 6 days ago I wont kid you somethings that happen are not the greatest but to tell you the truth nothing was as bad as some (.) I had. I was up just after the surgery and peeing I really had to go I was on tyn3 the next day and went home the 3rd (its hard to sleep in the hosp,your own bed is better) I have been walking around the block at my own speed and laying down (Its hard to not jump up and do a job around the house but I worked hard before going in and now its my families turn...about time..) I feel great and have not taken pain killers for 3 days. I have trouble with waking up in the night and not getting back to sleep but I sleep during the day when I need to and dont worry about it. everyone heals different but I just want you to know its not so bad and waiting is really the hardest part I know because I had to wait since Feb. hang in girls we are women and we only let the men think we are the weaker sex.(men dont have a clue ) be strong and if you are having a weak moment come talk to the sisters , they really helped me

post-op reply
Hi to all of the LIW's,
Couldn't resist not to post on here about my pain level after my TVH. I have had worse pain from my periods than the pain that I have had for my post-op recovery so far!
The pain that I had for the first few hours after my surgery, felt like bad cramps. I only felt the pain when I hadn't clicked the 'clicker' on the morphine soon enough. In fact, I didn't use the pain pump all that much....cause I kept waiting for the pain to get worse!....HONESTLY!!! LOL!
The waiting is the hardest part.
I am still having some pain, mostly in my lower back & and feel fatigued (I'm usually very active & think that maybe my body isnt used to all of this REST!)
My advice:
Keep busy....right to the minute you go to the castle!

Thanks Cathlaur, I keep telling myself it is almost over. I hope all goes well for you. Talked to my doctor this morning and he made me feel alot better and he told me he will take good care of me. He said they will give me something when I get there to calm me down, blood pressure is a little high.
You take care and I will post when I can and let everyone know how I am.
Thanks to all my Hystersister's
Love Lillyrose
