Re: surgery pending, nervous
ok guys wanted to update quickly as im still pretty weak. I had my surgery and things did not go very well. i was to have it vaginal however while taking out my uterus a artery tore and i had to be opened up and the artery quickly repaired.
My doctor did a great job quickly getting in there to stop the bleeding however with all the blood and with having to move so quickly he put two stitches in my Utterer so a urologist had to be called in to remove the stitches and a stint placed in my utterer.
I have so many holes in me i feel like a pin cushion but im here and thats what matters. Im in alot of pain, more than I thought id be in honestly but I guess thats because of everything that happened.
I have a huge cut across my stomach where they opened me up quickly to repair the damaged artery.. then the three small ones where they had the lap assist things in before the artery tore. He had just about finished the vaginal hyst when the right artery tore and I started to hemorrhage on him.
I was in the hospital a few days but am finally home now thankfully. I am in alot of pain from everywhere to be honest . Pain I can deal with though im just thankful to be here.
I have also had to deal with my hands being numb which they say is because i was in a inverted position so long on the operating table. They are slowly getting back to normal but still quite numb.. anyway I will update more later
