One good thing

I had surgery 6 days ago, and still feel very crappy (mostly weak), but I did notice that I have slept through the night without having to get up to go pee. For about two years, I've awakened at least twice in the night because I had to go to the bathroom. I think maybe my enlarged uterus was pressing on my bladder, and it no longer is irritating it. It's nice to sleep all night!

Me too, for the first time in a few years I can sleep with out getting up every hour or 2 to pee. I think mine was from adhesions, and a big mess of stuff in there making pressure in places it should not have been... Good luck in your recovery..

Hi Heartlyn!

Glad to hear that you are getting a good night's sleep. A friend of mine just called yesterday to tell me to get lots of sleep cuz she was listening to a medical program that said it helps the body heal faster - it said that due to the release of some hormone that only happens while you're sleeping, your body heals faster after major surgery.

Take care!
