Hello!
This is only my second post. My first is over in the "Across America" (or something like that) board. I was looking for someone who might have used the same hospital that I will be using, once I set my date.
I have been reading lots of messages(which is taking quite a while, slow browser), looking for others who have had an SAH done. I've read about TAH BSO's and am wondering if the recovery is similiar. I'm concerned about my ovaries shutting down, but I guess there isn't much I can do about that.
I'm glad to have this site to find comfort in!

Hi Sharon,
Welcome to Hystersisters!!
Although I can't answer your question about the hospital I did want to say that I'm glad you found us.
You might also want to post your question in the post-op board.
I went to high school in MA, but have lived in Florida for the past 30 years.
I want to wish you the best, and please let us know when you have a date for your surgery.
's
Karen

Hi Sharon, and welcome!!! So glad that you found us!
I had TAH/BSO...but many women here have had procedures similar to yours. A good place to look for info is to read the Pull Down Menus on our home page...scroll down to the bottom to "Princesses Tell Their Stories". You can also run a search on SAH using our search engine...little purple button at the top right of each page. You may find many threads on the subjects you want to investigate.
Stop in to the "Neighborhoods" forum and check out MA...you may be able to hook up with some women from your area.
Keep reading, keep posting all your questions, and stop by Chat as well. You will find lots of great ladies here and lots of love and support.
We'll be here to help you every step of the way, so by the time your date rolls around, you'll be ready!!!
Karen
