2nd opinion today, its a go. Surgery date 11-18

Well, had my second opinion today. Really liked this Dr. He echoed everything my Dr.had said. My uterus is the size of someone who is 16 weeks pregnant! Time to get rid of this fake baby! Finally at peace with my decision. Wish I didn't have to wait 2 weeks now. Oh well, lots to do to prepare.

This site helped me so much!!
I did get cranberry juice (add a little to my water every day) prune juice (drink a small glass every am), stool softeners and gas x... Oh and comfortable pads.
I made a little basket to take my meds from one room to the next. I also have a heated throw blanket that's amazing.
I have not really needed the gas x, been pretty good with walking.
I also have kept my diet softer which helps with BM's. Setting my alarm with a pain schedule has been amazing for pain control and my ice pack 😉
If I think of anything else I will let you know. The worst for me was waiting to get it done. I did clean the house like crazy that day before lol!!
It all went very well, better than I thought it would I had scared myself. Hugs!!! You will do great!
