anyone else experience this

I am approx 8 weeks post TAH with loss of only one ovary. I tried getting back to gym on fri, doing light stuff and now am in quite alot of pain. Excuse the graphic description but I feel a bulge at the mouth of vagina, and general aching both front and back down there. I also am having sharp jagged pain when trying to have BM, like sphincter is splitting. I haven't had any previous problems during recovery and have had no BM problems either. Is this just getting back to normal pains?

Hi Kimmi --

Just my opinion but I think a call to your doc is in order........these don't sound like normal recovery pains to me (especially the bulge at the opening of the vagina and the sharp pain with the BM). Are you sure you didn't overdo it at the gym? Your light workout may not have been as light as you thought. If it were me I'd call the doc and get checked.........for peace of mind if nothing else.

Good luck to you!

I agree with Ann.

tried to call the my gyn but he is out of town, I am hesitant about going to hosp emerg. I will wait another day or so and if it doesn't get better try the emerg gyn.

Thanks
