Hello

I'm Jennifer and I just started using this site upon the recommendation of my cousin.

I had my hysterectomy on May 17th, 2012. It was robotic / laproscopic. They removed everything but my ovaries.

Overall, I think I'm doing really well with healing. Just a few little discomforts and I think it will be nice to see if I am experiencing what everyone else has experienced and get general advice here and there.

This seems like a great place to give / get support and be more informed about what my body just went through
