5 weeks post hysterectomy - not getting anywhere.
yesterday I reached my 5th week post op and I'm still struggling.
I've had two infections (one internal, one external) and I'm really emotional and depressed.
I am on HRT as I've had everything removed and have been taking it as prescribed.
I don't feel like I'm getting any better - I'm in pain most of the time (either back ache or what feels like pulling in my stomach). I still look pregnant and just see no light at the end of the tunnel.
I go to bed when I feel tired at night but then lie there for hours as I can't sleep. I wake a number of times in the night and keep having hot flushes - so bad that in soaking the sheets when I wake.
I'm at my wits end and don't know what to do. If I talke to the hub, I feel like I'm moaning. The kids look at me and see I'm "ok" and don't understand why I'm not doing housework (some days I'm not even dressed). I'm in pain when I go out and I don't even know what to do about returning to work. I just don't want to go!
What's wrong with me?! What do I do and how can I get better?
