Anyone having abdominal hysterectomy September 20th

Just wondering if anyone is having an abdominal hysterectomy on September 20th and wants a buddy to keep up with progress and support?

My name is Sarrie and I'll be your hostess on your recovery forum. The day of your surgery you will get a link to a recovery thread that is exclusively for you and the other sisters having surgery that same week. There you will be able to post updates, ask questions and keep in touch with other sisters who will all be going through recovery at the same time. I look forward to seeing you there. Get some rest and do your last minute prep this week because the next few weeks will be all about YOU!

I'm having one on sept 21st. This will be my first surgery so I'm totally stressed out!

We've moved your thread to our Friends Without Faces forum (per the website owner's notice posted at the top of the Pre-Op Forum) where we hope you'll enjoy fun and social chatter! But we'll look for you in the Pre-Op Support Forum for all support discussions and questions prior to surgery where all pre-op sisters can respond.

You can find those ladies having surgery on the same day as yourself by using the Calendar link on the right of every page under "Today's Events".

Following surgery, in the Post-Op Hysterectomy Support Sub-Forum there will be a dedicated Recovery Progress Reports thread for all those who share your surgery week.

We're sending best wishes!

I am! I am scheduled for a lap robotic assisted hysterectomy at 9am on Sept 20. It's all getting so real now! I have to do my pre-op blood work Thursday morning.

I'm having an abdominal surgery but it'll be a partial hysterectomy. My Pre op is Friday with the doctor and hospital. My surgery is at 9:30 on the 20th. I'm driving my family crazy talking about and worrying about EVERYTHING!

I am seriously on edge with this...I keep thinking this is what I'm going to be like all the time when my hormones go whack-o Plus I'm about to get another period...so that's not helping matters.
I've had three c-sections so I am familiar with abdominal surgeries...I've also had two laprascopic procedures...but for some reason I am still worried about the pain. I am normally a very active person...I hit 8k-10k steps on my fitbit every day just about (when I remember to wear it so I'm hoping that will help my recovery
