Can't wait for my date!
I go back and forth between, "what am I doing?" and "git 'er done!". I had a big "flood" at work today . I had to quick march to my changeroom where all my supplies are to tidy up, insert the Diva Cup and change into the "back up" undies. It's a "Git'er done" day today.
I am 53-ish and I have had problems since I was 38. I was finally diagnosed with Adenomyosis, polyps and one ovarian cyst. I was divided about doing this at this age, so close to menopause I thought. But a friend who is 58 is going through menopause now. I don't think I can endure 5 more years of unpredictable, prolonged, and heavy bleeding.
I am looking forward to my date, and the recovery which will be spent in the gazebo with a few knitting projects and a pile of good books.
Good wishes to all for your surgery and recovery. And thanks to the experienced sisters who stick around on the site to support us pre-ops!

Your back and forth of yes/no for the surgery, your emotional , is very normal. This is a tough surgery to digest, and one that should not be taken lightly. And then sometimes, your body can remind you just why you are doing this. It is time for you to have a normal life.
Your date will be here before you know it... In the meantime, in there, and keep your supplies handy!
