Hi! I'm new to this site and just came across your post. I'm from Southwest Michigan and was hoping I'd find someone else in Michigan too!

Yes I see you had your hysterectomy last year? I am having mine tomorrow at 1pm! So nervous!!!

Welcome and best Wishes. I was born and raised in Michigan but now live in Texas! You can take the girl out of Michigan but not the Michigan out of the girl!

I hope everything went well with your hysterectomy! Yes, I had mine last year. At the time, there was only one ovary and I was lucky enough to keep it. Then in March of this year the ovary twisted and most of it was removed, hoping to spare enough to keep me from menopause. Unfortunately, it only lasted a few months and last week I had the rest of it taken out. So now I've officially started menopause and I'm not a fan of it! Haha
Best of luck with your recovery, I hope you can rest up and be on your feet again in no time!!!

So far I’m 48 hrs in and the pain sucks and I’ve passed very little gas and no BM. Taking Miralax and doing everything I can but I definitely feel like garbage. I’m sure it’s all normal.

It's nice that you've found others in your area and we hope you will enjoy getting to know each other here in the Michigan Neighborhood forum.

Please feel welcome to chat about topics of local interest here but as per the forum descriptor, this is an area where we take a welcome break from all topics that relate to surgery, recovery, hormones, menopause, etc. We have support forums for those topics.

Members who are post-hysterectomy are encouraged to reply on threads started by members in the Pre- and Post-Op forums to offer support and to help answer questions based on their own experience. Recent post-op members can use the Post-Op Hysterectomy Support message board as the place to start new threads to ask recovery questions, and use the Recovery Progress Reports thread for their specific surgery week to share recovery updates and to offer encouragement to their surgery week HysterSisters.

We'll look for you in the support forums for hysterectomy-related topics, and hope you'll enjoy sharing here about topics local to your area.
