A helpful sticky request

I see a lot of abbreviations and know what some mean but not all. TVH, LSH? etc. If there were a sticky that told what these stand for it would be less confusing. Unless there is, and I missed it in my drug induced state. Thank you sista's! This web site is like a life line I am hanging onto before Wed and my ..... (not sure what abbreviations) da vinci total hysterectomy.

Hi Kansasteacher,
I was like you and finally was directed to the quick links below your name. Its a drop down menu and has the abbreviations.

got it! Thanks! Then I guess I am TLH that includes ovaries right? or dvTH?

Hi The T for total just includes cervix removal and nothing to do with ovaries. That comes uder separate name of oopherectomy
The Dv bit is Da Vinci which is less invasive than the L for Laparascopic but both better than TAH!

ok.. still confused.. suffice it to say..its all going.
