I am almost 2 weeks post-op, radical hysterectomy with cervix, uterus, both fallopian tubes, and 1 ovary removed. I am still having achy, bad cramp pain in my bellybutton and below, with sporadic sharp pains! I find it very hard to even sit. I had my surgery laprascopic and everything removed vaginally. Thank you for your videos and to all the warriors who are sharing their stories. Many in my life don't understand how serious ofva surgery this was and how painful it can be for some of us. I was feeling so frustrated because I am still in pain, until I came here. So, I will try to allow my healing process to happen and feel less scared. I always feel like my lower abdominal and pelvic muscles are tight and always engaged. So thank you for explaining everything ❤️ means do much.

Had my TAH BSO on June 22,epidural failed and I had to be put to sleep, wore compression stockings during surgery because a blood clotting disorder and multiple issues from lupus SLE, fibromyalgia has made it worse. I blacked out the day after surgery and had fainting spells the Friday, blood work was good so I was discharged. I go for weekly dressing at the hospital. They reported thus Tuesday that the incision not healing well as my abdomen is too large and covers the wound, so it's very inflamed. Wasn't advised on any exercise methods for healing . The typical no shower etc . Thanks for your resource. It's helpful. Happy healing and recovery ladies 🎉😊

@MakeUPbyKiani definitely listen to your body! I found out I was having bladder infections and they were bad. But, because I had no more oversized uterus pushing on my bladder, and surgery causes nerve damage, I didn't feel like I was having them. My nerves finally are healed or repaired, so I can feel more. I still run risks of bladder infections, but I hope that these videos will help avoid another surgery

I’m 7 weeks past surgery and doing great. The story ended well, though with a surprise. After all pathology work was done, not only did I have uterine cancer but also fallopian cancer that was undiagnosed until surgery and pathology work. Ovaries and lymph nodes were clear. Usually fallopian cancers are not detected until stage 3 or 4 when it’s really serious. I am extremely blessed by God to have found the cancers early and surgery was all that was needed. I also am working with a great hormone doctor that is very supportive of resuming HRT therapy post cancer in the proper balance and with close monitoring. Life is good!

I’m post menopausal for over twenty years. I’m 70 and started spotting about a year ago. Finally went to gynecologist for ultrasound. I had a very small cancerous polyp with small pus around it. I couldn’t understand why they wanted to take everything out.. uterus, tubes, ovaries and 10 lymph. I had never had surgery before. I had anesthesia for the ultrasound and for surgery. In the recovery, ask if I was awake, I started speaking in tongues(Holy Spirit.. gift.. comforter) and asked 3 of them if they were saved. My surgery was Feb 28. It’s been a little over 8 weeks now and went for my post visit on 16th of April. Dr said a little slower healing. Take it easy 2-3 more weeks. I would say to anyone that might read this comment, be sure and visit your dr if you have something unusual going on. Praise the Lord I don’t have any further treatment except dr checkups, but had I gone a year ago, I probably would not have had to go through the surgery. God bless!

I'm 50 and 11 days post full abdominal hysterectomy (still have my ovaries!) due to a very large fibroid but there were some complications with the surgery as I had a lot of scar tissue from a previous C-section, my bladder was stuck somewhere it shouldn't have been and they found adenomyosis in my uterus (which I didn't know about previously but makes SO much sense!) I'm doing well, very mobile and the pain is manageable now. The first day I wanted to die, really I though I'd never survive the pain and I'd never be 'normal' again! They took the catheter out early the morning after the surgery, got me up and put of bed, showered and mobile 😳 looking back I think it was too soon as I was almost completely incapacitated with pain but I'm not a doctor 🤷 Day 2 was marginally better but still in a world of pain...It was INCREDIBLY hot in the hospital and I had no appetite at all... Then day 3 hit and I suddenly felt a bit better, apart from my bowel and bladder 🙁 I screamed when a doctor touched my abdomen 😳 so they sent me for a CT scan which showed some liquid in my lungs and a LOT of inflammation in my lower stomach area. I was started on intravenous antibiotics just in case of infection. Day 4 I was up and about more, feeling good, still a bit wobbly and in pain but ready to leave hospital the next day! Day 5 I left hospital with a prescription for pain meds, stool softener and 5 days of oral antibiotics. I also had a very busy day as I had a 3 hour drive to my parent's house where I came for recovery, I ended up exhausted but glad to be home! Day 6 the extreme pain in my bowel in the morning started when I needed to go for a BM 😳 Day 7 my original dressing came off (a pico 7 compression bandage) which was an amazing blessing, the wound was almost 100% healed on the outside, still a lot of pain and tenderness. Day 8 I noticed that a lot of the bloating was gone, even my Mum said I looked like I lost a stone (14 lb) overnight! Day 9 I weighed myself just to see and I had acrually lost 10.5 lb between the surgery, bloat and not having an appetite in hospital! 😳 Day 10 I went for a 20 minute walk with my dog though I have been very mobile anyway in general. My biggest issues now are the extreme tiredness and the excruciating pain in my bowel and bladder whenever I have a BM ☹️ It is almost unbearable 🙁 I'm told it 'just needs to settle' and to 'give it time' but it's really awful and I don't hear anyone else talking about it?! 🤷🤷 Love, healing and blessings to all 💚💚

@@uhkm5045 I'm 5 weeks post op in 2 days and it hasn't been easy 😔 I ended up back in hospital again through A&E (accident and emergency) 2 weeks ago (at 3 weeks PO) with EXTREME pain in my abdomen, awful pressure when I sat down, terrible pain in my bladder and bowel, also unable to release my bladder. The pain was really bad, especially when I was having a BM or trying to pass wind, it would come in waves for anything from 20 mins to an hour and I would scream and feel like I would pass out. It felt like it was spasming, cramping and tearing apart 😩 peeing hurt too at that stage and my whole abdomen was incredibly painful even to touch. They kept me in for another week and started me on intravenous antibiotics as well as very strong painkillers, intravenous paracetamol and buscopan! My white blood cells were elevated as well as my inflammation markers, indicating infection. They performed a CT scan which showed a small "collection' ie infection, near my bladder area as well as diverticular disease (which I didn't have before or if I did it had never flared up 🙁). The suspicion is that the hysterectomy surgery may have triggered it as well as the bladder repair, causing current infection, pain and bladder issues such as I often don't realise when my bladder is full and I need to empty it 😳 After my WBC count returned to normal and the inflammation markers and pain reduced I was discharged on oral antibiotics for a further week 😭 The pain is a lot less now but still comes and goes and I'm afraid of what will happen when I finish the antibiotics 🙁 but I will have my 6 week check up next week so hopefully I might get more answers then as well as the hospital is going to do a colonoscopy under outpatients to try to find out why my bowel is so inflamed which night 'just' be the diverticular disease 🤷😔 I feel quite weak and the further infection definitely set my recovery back but I do feel like I'm getting a bit stronger every day as long as I can keep the bladder/bowel pain at bay. The actual wound healed very well though my tummy is totally numb but I remember it took many years for that to wear off after the C-section I had 20 years ago!

I will be on 2 week post surgery and I must say, I had a pretty good experience! It was an interesting 2 weeks that I want to share to others that are getting ready to have one. First, I had one because after being in Menopause for about 3 years, I started to bleed out of nowhere! Well, it turned out to be a thickening of the uterine lining. Unfortunately for me, nothing seems to help stop it so after a year of this, I opted to have a complete hysterectomy! And Glory to God, they didn't find anything malignant after doing the lab work on the organs removed! Yeh! Now to my 2 week experience: Day 1 after surgery, I felt great, no pain! I was not hungry just sleepy so I slept a lot! Day 2, I got really bad anxiety and my BP was really high so I ended up going in to ensure nothing else was going in but was released within 3 hours. The ER doctor said it was after effects from anesthesia and should subside after a couple weeks...The anxiety persisted for about a week but it was mild and was managed by taking ibuprofen or tylenol. Day 3, I was still tired, groggy, and loss of appetite but my hubby made sure I at least ate a little soup and drank yokult! I also ate a Kiwi fruit and drank tea every day! Day 4, felt a little better and was able to eat at least 1 full meal! Slept a lot. Day 5, a little bit more energy and was able to eat very tiny meals. Day 6, slight anxiety but able to move around and go for walks every 45 minutes! Day 7, felt so good, I over did my activity and ended up with leg cramps. Increased my water intake and used a heating pad to relieve the leg cramps! Day 8-now, feeling better each day, more energy, moving around great, no pain whatsoever! Excited to see my doc for 2 week post-op so he can release me and I can drive again! Helpful hints that might help someone else: 1. Drink a probiotic every day 2. Drink a lot of water 3. Get up and walk every hour 4. Meditate 5. Drink a greens protein (I felt this really helped my digestion...) 6. Relax and watch your favorite sit-coms!

I'll go in 10 days for a cervical cancer and incidentally they've found a friendly fibroid that was first in cystic degeneration and now in necrosis and calcification a month later with all my dietary and herbal self-improvements. Greatly reduced my edema. But now that I know a little dying rock is what has kept my uterus company and not pregnant, I am at peace with the removal of my cervix, uterus and fallopian tubes. I went all the way through DABDA. Now I'm just keeping up my tea, my vitamin E succinate and heat therapy to minimize the tumor and stay busy and positive. Going for an IV infusion of vitamin C to see how it feels. 10 days!

It’s 5 weeks since my vertical cut, total hysterectomy. Still cannot sit up normally. I am mostly either laying down on a lounge chair or standing up. I don’t think I can do any kinda exercise aside from a minute of walking for another 3 months. And the hot flashes wake me up 3-4 times a night. If I don’t get HRT, I am pretty sure I’ll have a much shorter life because of the bad sleep. I don’t regret the operation one bit since I was at a point where I had no choice.

Hello ladies, I had vaginal hysterectomy too (ovaries left in) and a pelvic floor ( anterior) repair. I’m on day 12 after surgery and can definitely recommend to have a little pillow to protect the area when you are walking, sleeping on your sides and DEFINITELY if you sneeze, clear your throat , cough, laugh ( avoid it if you can ). I have only been on ibuprofen / paracetamol as can’t deal with opioids however, this has really helped with going to the toilet ( plus Movicol, prunes, papaya) as my biggest fear is to strain my self, so I avoid at all costs getting constipated. Wtr moving & general pain, I had endometriosis/ adynomiosis and a uterus prolapse so I CAN already say how different I feel & relieved no to have that constant pressure. I have been moving and walking little by little inside second floor in my house, a few times a day ( no stairs at all yet) and I can recommend gently rocking ( tilt) of the pelvis whilst lying down in bed with bended knees, this movements seems to free my pelvis area of all the accumulative tension & inflammation it has endured. I wish you all a total healing and recovery soon 🙏🏽

There is no muscles involved in stage 1/2 prolapse just tissue. So once after hysterectomy less support (just vagina wall, cut and sutured fascia and cut and sutured at different angle uterosacral ligaments) but more weight on the remaining (nothing prevents from intestines to fall on bladder and walls), it is issue of time when stage 1/2 will happen. I don't understand how can one of the best urogyns in my country say me that I am at almost zero risk for prolapse when I do have points Ba and Bp moved to -2.5 (instead of -3) that is prolapse stage 1 for normal woman and I wasn't on menopause yet, so what will happen when I will be there?! I wish I knew these before the surgery. The most disturbing is that I left no joy in my life trying to postpone prolapse but it isn't promised that I won't have it.
