Vile and severe tummy pains post hysterectomy
Hello all. Generally l'm really good. l feel ok in myself. l can pee ok, and my bowels are moving ok...l need to eat the right things though, to keep it that way, and a little prune juice daily helps too.
But...when l do go...the pain. lts not in my bottom...its inside my belly, as l'm passing. l have nearly blacked out twice, and have to hold on to the wall the rest of the time. Once l've passed, its gone..no pain, and l'm ok again. l'm not straining at all, and l've been very careful with my resting. lt didn't start right away...the first 2 or 3 times it wasn't so bad. lts since l have come him,e and the the first 3 times it hurt it made me bleed a little. Now it doesn't.
l have read that could be the bowel settling as it empties, into the space left by the surgery...but l don't know for sure.
l have searched of this elsewhere, but most women talk of pain IN the bottom area, and pain as it passes...but thats not a problem for me at all.
Any ideas?

Vile and severe tummy pains post hysterectomy
dear Maddy and I hope you're doing better. Pain varies from person to person but please do share with your doc any pain that is so severe you almost black out! And keep us posted about how you are.

Re: Vile and severe tummy pains
As (((Romy))) said, please don't suffer with such severe pain.
Especially since this sounds like something "new" -- it needs to be mentioned to the . This is not a normal kind of pain! It may be related to a change in diet, or it just may be a normal part of the healing process. But it also could be an indication of a post-op complication. I'm not trying to scare you -- but I am concerned for you.
If things don't get better soon, please contact the doctor. And please let us know how you're doing.

Re: Vile and severe tummy pains
I had the same problem during my first 3 days, terrible cramping. The doctor says it's probably gas accumulated during surgery. Try eating small meals the through out the day and maybe take gas x or something similar after eating. I'm on day 13 and the cramps have stopped.

Re: Vile and severe tummy pains
I am on 11 days post surgery and I too have this pain. The first time it happened I thought I was going to have to call an ambulance. It's getting less intense but I will be mentioning it to my doc at my 2 week appt. I'm glad I found this site and that other people are having similar issues.

Re: Vile and severe tummy pains post hysterectomy
Rest well, dear Maddy: and your main priority is
I'm so glad that you took the sisterly advice to heart and contact your doctor! We were so concerned for you if you hadn't.
Sending you many healing thoughts and
Keep us posted. As some sisters have already written, call your docs when your pain is severe. It's always comforting to know that we're not alone and that we share much with other women. But support can't take the place of medical advice from an expert. And that's why. . . .
It reminds us that both are important.
