Had my robotic hysterectomy yesterday. Found it hard to sleep last night. Had to sleep on an incline cause of pain at incision sites. Today feeling ok. Finally passed gas after walking around some. Hurts when I pee and incisions hurt when I cough or sneeze. Constantly have to clear my throat. Assuming from the tube they stuck in. Still waiting to see my doctor. Don't even think I'm going to see her. Think it's going to be an on call dr. Really wanted to see her to ask how the surgery went and get details. She didn't even call my husband after like she said she would. And I have no bleeding

Had my laparoscopic surgery yesterday, I was super nauseous after surgery and last night, but slept ok. I would wake up every few hours uncomfortable due to the incisions but would be able to fall back asleep. Less nauseous today, just drinking plenty of water and planning on eating bland snacks and soup for lunch.

Starting to have shoulder pain. Also had diarrhea this morning

Hello lovely ladies!
Had my laparoscopic hysterectomy yesterday afternoon. They managed to save both ovaries so no HRT for me. I'm still in hospital, can't sleep, but I always have trouble sleeping and they didn't want me to take my Seroquel tonight. Not much pain, but they gave me a lot of different pain meds. It hurts less than the endometriosis, which wasn't as much as they thought it would be, guess I'm a wimp.
Hopefully I can go home later today, I want my preggo pillow and some biscuits and gravy. Hope y'all have a smooth speedy recovery!

Hi Ladies,

I hope everyone is doing well. Had my surgery Monday evening and have to say, i have been feeling great. No issues with recovery, energy level has been great and pain has been minimal. I am now on morning three and today I am very tired. Is this normal?

Have a lovely day lovlies.

I did not sleep last night, very sore today, even with pain meds. Dad just got to the hospital to drive me home, still waiting on the hospital pharmacy to bring my meds.
Hope everyone is recovering peacefully.
Love Luna

I’m on day 2 of recovery and even though I slept great last night, I’ve been very tired today. But hopefully the fatigue means we are healing nicely!! Keep us updated! Xoxo, Victoria

Home from the hospital, staying with Mom and Dad for a while. Mom had surgery last week, I said I hope neither of us fall on the floor cause we can't pick the other one up. Not much pain, just my belly button and my vaginal cuff hurt, everything else feels like I did a million crunches. Dr said I was textbook and the poster child for recovery. Truth is the catheter was the worst part and I wanted it out quickly. They said not until you can walk down the hall, I got up and started walking an hour after surgery I wanted that catheter out so bad.
Didn't sleep last night and now I'm wide awake, I see a crash nap in my future.
Hope everyone is doing well and STAY ON TOP OF YOUR PAIN MEDS! Like my soulsister says
Love

Had my total laparoscopic hysterectomy yesterday (dec 17th) it went well and I was able to keep my ovaries. I got home yesterday evening and have been resting. My husband really has done better than I thought he would taking care of me. My kids are at my moms which makes resting possible. Sleep isn’t happening much tonight. Pain is there it not terrible with the pain meds. I had the pain from being pumped with the air but I know that will go away soon. Overall I’m doing well. Just pain and discomfort but that’s to be expected. Big plans tomorrow.... of napping
