Lori,
I would call my MD and find out what the deal is. Have you not noticed it before now? If you had a TAH, they might have suctioned more fat cells on that side. Other than that I haven't a clue. Please let us know what you find out.

caving in

I had a TAH/BSO with bladder repair on March 8- a couple of weeks later I noticed that the center of my stomach, right underneath my belly button seemed to have caved in! My gyn said that I was fine and attributed it to my organs settling into new places due to the absence of my uterus. I also noticed at the time that that same area had alot more feeling than it did previously (it was right above the incision. Since you had a vaginal you really won't have this problem, huh).
I agree with everyone else that you should call your doctor
Take good care,
Pam

Dear Lori,

I don't have any personal experience with this one, but I agree with the other sisters: call your dr ASAP.

Please let us know what they say.

Re: stomach "cave in"

My stomach is a little misshapen as well. It's been almost a year since my TAH and my right side is sunken in a little. It was really bad before I had an ileostomy done. Since then it has made my left side go down some too. Trust me I know what it's like to feel ugly from all this. On top of it all I have all these scars on my stomach going in ever possible direction. I feel like Frankenstein sometimes.
