Hysterectomy 9th April - done and dusted!
« on: April 15, 2014, 08:21:51 AM »

Hello lovely ladies,

Just a quick update and thank you for your support at a nerve racking time.
Had op on 9th April - everything removed + hormone implants -  went well.
Stayed an extra 24 hours - high temperature.
Home on 12th April.
Care from all nursing staff, healthcare assistants, Doctors, - excellent.
Overall feeling good - getting plenty of rest - feeling more positive.
My two adult children have really stepped up - lots of care and fuss.
Will share more details in later post as I think it's important especially for women who are considering a hysterectomy.
But so far I am REALLY glad I went through with it.

Soooo relieved that's it's over

Have a lovely day, ladies.  :)

Ichante xx

Eco what Galadriel has said, so pleased it went well and you have the aftercare, it really is what you need after a complete hysterectomy.

Enjoy the care and fuss. :)

Glad it went well. I had mine years ago, but was grateful for the relief from constant pain & bleeding. Have never regretted it.
