Re: new here surgrey feb 5..
I know this is an overwhelming experience. Your fears and emotions are very normal.
For pain, everyone is different. The other sister is right - take the pain meds offered to you. You will heal better if your pain is under control. They will ask you how much pain you are in and give you meds to match.
Regarding sex afterwards. Everyone is different on this as well. Some say sex is better, some say worse, and everywhere in between. For me (I had a TAH BSO), sex feels different. (DH cannot tell any difference without my cervix). My orgasms are not as intense - I miss the muscle contraction. BUT they are more frequent. So who knows what the body will do. We do have to use lubricant, and that is frustrating for me.
Ask whatever questions you have, and we will try to answer them. Also post your nerves, fears, freakouts, and emotions. It really does help. We are here to help and support you. We will be by your side throughout this!
