Upcoming hysterectomy 5/6: Finally have operation date and nervous now
Hi,
This is my first post in here. I had a call today with a date for LVAH which will be a week Sunday. I have waited nearly 5 months for this date and now it’s nearly here I’m nervous. I’m worried about the recovery time, has anyone else had this and been back to work a fortnight later (I work in a office)?

Upcoming hysterectomy 5/6: Finally have operation date and nervous now
This is my first post as well. I had TAH on April 2nd. I’m still sore, weak, and get tired quick. I’m staying out for 6weeks!! I was nervous as well but I was tired of the heavy periods and so glad I went through with it!!! Good luck!!

Upcoming hysterectomy 5/6: Finally have operation date and nervous now
Hi I had LAVH at 38 and kept my ovaries . I work in am office as well. Recovery depends on why and how much they have to do and your own healing process . Trying to.speed it up or doing too.much too fast will only.prolong recovery . I learned this the hard way . I will not lie everyone experience is different and I had a rough recovery I expected so little pain etc... But I was bleeding every day with terrible painful fibroids . And now about a year and half later i would do.it again it changed my life I hope this helps you

I went back to work after two weeks, but I work from home so I did not have to drive back and forth. I am not sure I could have went back so soon if I had to commute.

Re: Finally have operation date and nervous now
I had an LAVH in January and was back at work in under two weeks without any problem. I could honestly have gone back the Monday after my Thursday surgery if I'd wanted to and been able to get cleared that fast by my doctor.

I just had what would be my last period and it was agony and was wishing this surgery on. I’m not good at resting and understand I will have too. It sounds like it has took it out of you! Was it really painful straight after?

If you would do it again it shows it will be worth it. I couldn’t carry on in pain I’m in and was actually going to ring my surgeons secretary this week because I was struggling l didn’t expect her to call me giving me a date so soon. I never thought about it before but now I’m scared I will take ages to recover. So sorry to hear it took you a while to recover. How long were you in hospital? Ive read so many stories and not one surgery seems the same so I guess it’s how your body feels.
