Scar tissue after TAH

New to the forum, but i am hoping that someone is dealing with this problem like i am or is my doc. full of it. I am 31 and had my surgery on Jan. 6, 2010. I do have on ovary and half of my cervix. I returned back to work on Feb. 24th full time and everything seemed to be going fine. My husband and i decided to try to have sex again. Got almost done and here comes the pain. Severe pain in my kidney area and lower abdominal area. It was like i just had the surgery again. Went to docs next morning. He examined me and stated i had a bacterial infection. Was prescribed metronidazole. Went back 7 days later, still not fully recovered and he put me back on same meds for 7 more days. Started to feel normal again until 4 days ago. Same story as before and same pain. Went to the doctors again. This time he stats....the scar tissue around my cervix is hard and has not formed properly yet. Causing the pain and discomfort that i am having. I will explain to you all like i explained to him. My husband and I have had sex many times since my surgery, just so happens the pain came the two times in question. He told me there are two ways to correct this, one is surgery to cut and form the scar tissue and the second was meds. I took the meds and i will see him again in 4 weeks to see the progress. He put me on Vagifem. He stats that hormones help to make the scar tissue soft and will help my body form (shape) the scar tissue.
Any suggestions or comments would be helpful. I can honestly say i have no idea. This is my first ever surgery, so i do not know what to expect.

Sorry to hear about this. I am only one week post-op, so just don't know yet if I'll have complications like this. This scar tissue - is this the vaginal cuff they made during the hyst? I own one of those now.
