Re: scared
It is perfectly normal to be scared. I just had my surgery on the 6th and was convinced I would never see the 7th. Please talk with your dr about your fears, he/she might be able to give you something to make the waiting easier-which, of course, is the hardest part. This past week has been very easy for me with very little pain. The hardest part has been sitting still because I feel so good. I had an appendectomy 10years ago which was way worse. Best wishes and happy thoughts your way. God Bless.

Re: scared
I had fear of the unknown before my surgery, I just knew I didn't want to get cancer and wanted to get the bad precancerous cells out of my body . I was diagnosed w/ Complex hyperplasia w/ atypia( thickening of the uterine lining with abnormal pre-cancer cells). You should do fine with the surgery, and talking to ur dr abt ur concerns will help as well to get you prepared. I am 7 weeks postop tomorrow. Today I went for my first physical evaluation for physical therapy. Just be sure you have plenty of help lined up for afterwards. I am making progress like a turtle. I am a few pounds overweight and I have lots of dissolvable stitches inside. Dr said I am healing nicely inside. I still have aches and pains, but it is better than it was in the beginning. Glad you found this site as it will give you lots of support as well. You are in my prayers.
