Taking an 8 hour class 2 weeks after hysterectomy
This may or may not be the right forum but I am scheduled for LAVH /BSO on 1/7/16. Does anyone think that I will be ok to take an 8 hour course 15 days after surgery?

I think that would vary from person to person, I could have done it with no problem, but everyone recovers differently

Re: Taking an 8 hour class 2 weeks after surgery
What physical activity is involved in the course? I would have been unable to either sit for eight hours straight or be on my feet for eight hours straight, but I would have been okay if I'd been able to mix the two of them up.

Re: Taking an 8 hour class 2 weeks after hysterectomy
Hi dmp5 to HysterSisters!
Everyone is different, but taking an 8 hour course that soon after surgery may be a bit ambitious. I had a TAH BSO, and there would have been no way I could have done it.
A course takes more energy than you think, and requires lots of concentration. You may also have a hard time sitting that long. Does the course repeat later so that you can take it when you feel better?

I'm 10 days post-op and had a TLH/BSO. I can't imagine sitting 8 hours right now! Even with breaks. I went to church for Christmas and was sitting for a little over an hour and came home in pain. That being said, you are not likely to damage your incisions just sitting still. So it would be up to you. If there is anything else involved besides just sitting still, then you need to run it by your doctor first. Hope you feel well enough to go!
