My hysteryctomy is scheduled. For october 19th and I am scared to death. I am have a total hysteryctomy ovaries and all due to severe endometriosis. Im soo scared. my uterus is now binded to different parts of my body which requires a more intrusive operation. :( |
I will be thinking of you. I had mine several years ago, and I must say it was the best thing I ever did. I hope the surgery goes well. DON'T DRIVE OR DO ANYTHING STRENOUS FOR 5 WEEKS, they tell you this for a reason although so many of us don't listen :rolleyes: It does pay in the long run. Good Luck. |
i can relate to you being scared i put mine off for 3 yrs and went and got 3 diff opinions but all 3 doctors told me the same.i ended up having mine 2 yrs ago and i have to tell you its the best thing i ever did i wished i wouldnt have put it off for so long.the surgery it self wasnt bad at all i was only in the hospital one day and i walked out feeling great.if you trust your doc and he has a good rep you will be fine and im sure you will be happy once its over with i sure was.so good luck hang in there.please keep us posted after you have it done.:thumbup: |
I'll be thinking of you, and wishing you a smooth surgery and a fast recovery! you're in our thoughts and prayers. |
this is my 3rd opinion also. I have put it off for years. i am so scared but ready to be done with the pain. No more feeling Like im having a baby every month. |
ohhh good luck. The doctors have told me I need to do this. I think I only have mild endometriosis but have a strong family history of ovarian cancer so they want me to have a full hysterectomy too. I'm not looking forward to it for a bunch of reasons besides the obvious. Good luck and please keep us posted. :( |
I will keep you in my prayers. |
Please don't be afraid. They'll take good care of you. Just think about how good you're going to feel after it's over and after your recovery. |
I will keep you in my thoughts. Many people have to have this procedure, including my sister at 21 years old, so it is like an old hat for your doctors. You have nothing to worry about, and even if you are in pain afterward, think about how much better you will feel once it is all over. I am sure it is the best thing for you. Take advantage of ALL of the recooperation time! Think of it as a mandatory vacation, how can you complain about that?? And you will have fuzzy little ones to keep you company! I hope you look on the bright side and are happy about what you have to do. Many prayers and well wishes! |
...I'll be praying for you too......for healing and for peace so you won't be so scared............ |

Prayers are coming you way. Ask them to give you something for gas while their doing the surgery. You'll be a lot more comfortable when it's over. |
Bless your heart. I will keep you in my prayers. It was the BEST thing I ever did and I am sure you will eventually feel the same way. As someone else said, do what the dr says and don't try to get out too soon, even when you feel like it:rolleyes: Some of us have a really hard time listening:D Good luck. Patty |
I will be praying everthing goes good and a fast recovery. |
You are in my prayers, I had mine almost 17yrs ago, and from what ive heard its alot less painful and the recovery is even less, I will be thinking of you, i was so scared to, I cancelled it 2x before i finally had to have my done thru an emergency from a eptopic pregnacy, Hey now for some good news, no more periods:D :D hugs to you:) |
You are in my prayers as well! I had mine done 18 years ago and they only took my uterus. I am sure the surgery has made leaps and bounds since then and your recovery will be very smooth. The hardest for me was the incision as I had never had one. They did a bikini cut and I walked bent over for almost two weeks...but I am so glad glad I did it. Don't be afraid...just focus on getting better and don't be afraid to ask for and take pain meds...they offer them for a good reason! |
Hugs! I'm sure everything will be fine, but I will keep you in my prayers. Please keep us updated. |
Oh you poor thing!! One of the worst parts of any medical procedure is the fear and anticipation beforehand. I just went through this with my best friend. Her uterus had fused to her bladder and she was sure the surgery would be horrendous. Well, guess what, she was totally blown away by how quickly she recovered and how little pain she had. I practically had to tie her down so that she would not overdo things, because she was feeling so good. Hugs to you and prayers coming your way, that your experience has a healing outcome.

prayers and good thoughts for you during the surgery and for a fast recovery ... |
Thinking of you, and sending healing thoughts in the days ahead. You will feel so much better and the best part...no more monthly girl stuff. Yahoo! |
Oh Sweetheart...you will be so glad after so long suffering, that you did this...I had mine 7 years ago at age 36...It was quite painful for the first week..I had extensive repair work done, but after that, every week was like...wahooooo...this is great!!! No more monthly pain, no more periods, no more more hormonal ups and downs..nor more planning your life around "that time of the month"!!!! You'll feel free...do use your good pain meds..for two reasons..theres no need to suffer and it will make you rest and sleep which is what you'll need, otherwise you know us Women, we'll get up and do more than we are supposed to:rolleyes: Good luck, they'll take good care of you..try and arrange for help at home with cleaning/laundry if you can for the first month... |
I had the same thing, and I felt so much better after the surgery that it was amazing! It IS serious surgery, but it's going to be fine. They will do all kinds of pre-op testing to make sure that you are healthy enough for surgery and anesthesia;) The recovery wasn't too fun for me, but they had to cut me from my belly button down to my old c-section scar, as the surgeon didn't know what they were looking for. MRI's and ultrasounds were inconclusive on me. Will you have some help for a couple of weeks afterward? You won't be able to do any laundry, cleaning, or cooking. Freeze up some easy to heat meals until your surgery day, it'll help to cut down on takeout meals, clean-up, and it'll keep you busy until then;) BIG hugs to you:love: |
I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. I went through my hysterectomy last year and am so glad that I did. The healing process takes a while but now, almost a year later, I feel like a new woman. I was like you...very nervous about the whole surgery...but don't regret one minute of it. |
