TAH: Upcoming hysterectomy 2/17: Vertical incision and drains - info wanted.

Welcome to the other side!
Good to know that you now at home and resting. I just wanted to point out that if you want to send a private message to buslady51, just left click on her name and it will give you that option. From what I can see, she hasn't posted anywhere after this thread.

Welcome back! I was in the hospital for three nights myself. I had an option to stay a fourth, but by the third day I was getting bored, so it was time to go. :-)

I'm sorry to hear about the complication from your epidural, but hopefully the week will pass quickly.

Hello there...I am doing ok. I don't know the abbreviations so forgive me, but my surgery was done laprascopic/vaginal. I spent one night in the hospital. Apparently I woke up from the anesthesia very aggressive and "feisty" so they had to put me back to out. That caused lots of nausea and just being "out of it". I came home Wednesday afternoon and was feeling good...then I realized it was suddenly Friday and I hadn't pooped. I had taken enough Colace and MiraLax to take down a cow but it wasn't working! I was so uncomfortable but once I was able to....ahhhh, much better! The Dr found some endometriosis but is hopeful it won't be a problem down the line (God, I hope so!). Right now my only complaint is my back and hips...trying to get comfortable. I am sorry you had some complications....I hope you are on the mend!
