Pre op apt.
Well I had my doctor apt. at 1:30 today. He said I'm having a total hysterectomy. He is going to do it through my stomach. He said he is going to take my uterus, tubes, ovaries and cervix. I am glad cause my ovaries must know that they will so be gone so they are giving my a heck of a time this past week. He said I will be in the hospital till Sat. morning. I have to be at the hospital at 6am. I want be having surgery till proubly after lunch, because he wanted to do surgery the Wed. after I went for my apt. at the beginning of the month. Well we couldn't do that cause my husband was leaving so he was booked for the 22nd but worked me in. He is doing 7 surgeries tomorrow and I close to last. I asked him when will I be starting the hormone therapy and he said he will give me a shot in recovery. I'm not really scared. Just a little nerves and I have a really bad headache. It did hit me today that I will never be able to have a baby again and I got depressed and cried. But I know this is for the best and what needs to be done. I think I have told yall everything. My DH has a lap top so if I can I'll try to e-mail yall from the hospital to let yall know how it all went and so yall want be worried. If not I'll e-mail as soon as I get home. I hope yall don't mind that I copied and paste off of an e-mail I wrote. I just have a headach so bad that I can't hardly see. I pray it goes away soon. Oh I forgot to tell yall the good news no bowel prep. I also wanted to say that all the ladies that are having surgery tomorrow and the rest of the week will be in my thoughts and prayers. I also want to thank yall ladies so much for being here for me it means so much. I have learned alot from yall. I'll post when I get a chance.
Hugs,
Gina
