Post-op, my belly button is now a deep cavern! I was very happy to have this type of surgery because it meant the surgeon could get a really good look inside and make sure there were no additional problems. I had very large fibroids. I have had a great recovery. I'm nearly 4 months post-op and feeling good. Best Wishes!!

Don't worry! You didn't scare me. I would rather know going in what to expect. Thanks for the info!
