Tennis, walking.......WHEN following hysterectomy?

Hi All! I'm on Day 16 post op from supracervical laparoscopic hysterectomy. I'm feeling great, most of the time. Just wondering when I can start playing tennis. I've been walking each day, but not really all that far, just for 10 to 15 minutes. Everything I've read says to be careful for several weeks, however, I really feel good and I'm starting to feel lazy! I don't go to my GYN until April 9th, so I thought I'd throw my questions out to you ladies.

Re: Tennis, walking.......WHEN following hysterectomy?

my understanding is walking is good, and it's ok to start ramping up your time and distance, but maybe still take it easy on the hills and tempo. I had the same type of hysterectomy and was told no activities that involved ab muscles for 6 weeks, and I was asking about doing push-ups. You can call your doctor but to play it safe skip the tennis until cleared.
Last week I did some tiny desk crunches and felt internal areas I hadn't been aware of for a week, little bit scary.

play it safe. If you are not sure, don't do it. You do not want to injure yourself and need surgery again and have to start your recovery all over! Call your doctor with these kinds of questions to be sure!
