Doc released me today
YAY GOD!!!
Doc released me today, I will be 6 weeks this Thursday.
He examined me today and said I'm healing good, I still have some stitches.
But told me I didn't have to come back, and to return to normal activities.
So, I'm thinking wait? I can go swimming?? with stitches?? He said yes..
and the pathology report said that I had fibroadenoma ?? I thought that was from your breast and not your ovary?!
And as far as still have pain in my pelvic area at the end of urinating, he said that is normal should get better within the next few weeks.
Any imput would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks Sisters!!
GOD BLESS

Re: Doc released me today
When your doc releases you it doesn't mean your completely healed. It just means your healed enough to resume normal activities as tolerated. It takes from 6 months to a full year for full recovery. Be smart and listen to your body and ease back into your normal routine slowly. If it hurts, makes you too sore, tires you out, makes you bleed, don't do it for a few more weeks and then try again.This is a long journey, but the hardest part is over, so just go slow and see how it all feels.

Re: Doc released me today
Thank you Cath..
What about sex? Should I try or wait? I still have stitches?
I don't know how many I asked him and he said a few, but it looks good.

Re: Doc released me today
My cleared me at 6 wks w/ stitches left. He also said i may see pink of I resumed intercourse. I was not ready as things were sore inside. I checked weekly by inserting my finger and feeling along my vaginal cuff. Still really sore until about wk 9. I resumed sex then because it felt comfortable enough where I didn't think I'd be in pain or have spotting. I didn't cramp, spit of experience any discomfort so I'm really glad I waited until my cuff was healed.

I waited 10 1/2 weeks and it was fine. I didn't feel ready before that. The desire was there full force but I was still a bit sore and waited.
