6 weeks post-hysterectomy and still feel sick
I had my 6 week post-op appointment this week. My doctor says I'm healing well but I still feel sick and weak by the end of the day. I also have had horrific back pain since the surgery. Is it normal to still feel so bad? I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to feel better on a daily basis. I hate feeling so useless because I can't clean my house or concentrate on my school work. I feel like I'm letting people down because I have no energy for them at the end of the day

Re: 6 weeks post-hysterectomy and still feel sick
slboise & I can imagine your frustration, but try to be patient with yourself. It takes some a little longer to heal than others. For some it may tay a few months. You didn't say if you kept your ovaries or not.If not, that could play a part.
Try to make sure that you are eating and drinking plenty of water. I would try to rest periodically during the day. As you build your core muscles back up, your back pain may ease up some. It just takes time.

If you continue to feel bad, give you doctor a call back and explain what's going on. Or even schedule an appointment with your Primary Care physician. in there. It won't always be this way.
