Pre-Op Hysterectomy Support
My total hysterectomy is scheduled for 8/18/04. Can't wait. I think it's funny to be reading that some of the gals named their tumor because I told my sister I was going to send out birth announcements when I "deliver" my tumor. My belly feels big enough to be PG. I was told on June 28th I needed a hysterectomy and the time has gone soooo slowwwww. I want to feel better, I want to eat a normal meal without feeling like I'm going to explode and my belly protruding. I want to wear normal pants without feeling like the waistband is cutting into me. Even my elastic pants are now feeling tight. Today is 8/16 and I'm almost there. I'll check back in with post-op info in a week or so.

Good luck to you and boy do I know where you are coming from on the big belly stuff, I was actually wondering if anyone else had felt the uncomfortable bloated feeling after they ate. I had gotten to where I did not want to eat just made me feel crappy. It is now only 2 days away and I am sure you will be soooo glad to have it over. You will be in my prayers.

Thanks to cyan91 and Robskay for the prayers and words of encouragement. When cyan91 goes in for surgery on 8/24, I should be in full recovery mode. I've never been off work for a 6 week period so that may also be a hurdle for me to overcome but I'm sure I'll manage -- with the help of a few good books.
